Brain fusing with AI will be like doing plastic surgery for intelligence
Electrodes that enhance the brain will soon be like "plastic surgery of intelligence" and will allow us to obtain cybernetic powers: in fact we will be cyborgs, scientists will implant artificial intelligence directly into our heads. Today, electrodes that deliver impulses to the brain are able to stabilize patients with seizures: the results are surprisingly promising. Soon the brain-computer interface will allow radical treatments even for psychological disorders such as depression. Raising the mind Kelly and Zach Weinersmith, couple at work and in life… Read more

Connectomics – Building a map of the mind
There are approximately 100 billion neurons in the brain of an adult human, and each of these neurons is connected to hundreds of others for a total of approximately 150 billion connections in total. Neuroscience is discovering that it is the pattern of these connections, the structure of this immense neural network, that is largely responsible for the functionality of the brain, in other words for our mental life: everything we feel, think, experience or do.

Jobs of the near future: 26 jobs of tomorrow
