Episode notes

This chapter explores the market potential of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology for treating depression. It discusses the projected growth of the BCI market, accessibility issues, and the impact of depression on people's lives. It also raises questions about using brain chips to enhance experiences and the potential dangers of self-medicating with technology.

How would you react to the idea of implanting a chip in someone's brain? Is it sheer excitement at the prospect of a futuristic cyborg evolution? Perhaps there is a reasonable concern about privacy and morality? Or, maybe you might dismiss it as mere make-believe? Brace yourself because it's not just a concept anymore. It has become a reality, and it's happening for the treatment of depression. Join us as we talk about the groundbreaking Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) clinical trial.
