Episode notes

The Ted Radio Hour features groundbreaking Ted Talks delivered at Ted Conferences, aiming to bring about the future we want to see and to understand who we are. The show presents speakers and ideas that surprise, challenge, and even change the audience. In a personal story, Nita Farahani discusses the devastating experience of losing her daughter to RSV, which ultimately became almost unbearable for her.

We're entering a new era of brain monitoring and enhancement, but what are the ethical implications? This hour, TED speakers explore the potential and pitfalls of merging our minds with machines. Guests include legal scholar and AI ethicist Nita Farahany, neurotechnologist and entrepreneur Conor Russomanno, neuroscientist and physician Sergiu Pașca and sous chef Kate Faulkner.
