Episode notes

The way your brain does when you're awake. Your brain is always there. Right. That's something that could actually just about be done today where you would listen to your conversation, understand what you're saying and give you that information. But another step is to actually go inside your brain. And there are some prototypes where you can connect your brain. They actually don't have the amount of bandwidth that we need. So I believe that will happen in the 2030s.
