The ability to interrogate and manipulate electrical activity in the human brain promises to do for the brain what biochemistry did for the body. When you go to the doctor, a chemical analysis of your blood is used to detect your body’s health and potential disease. Forewarned that your cholesterol level is high, and you are at risk of having a stroke, you can take action to avoid suffering one. Likewise, in experimental research destined to soon enter medical practice, just a few minutes of monitoring electrical activity in your brain using EEG and other methods can reveal not only neurological illness but also mental conditions like ADHD and schizophrenia. What’s more, five minutes of monitoring electrical activity flowing through your brain, while you do nothing but let your mind wander, can reveal how your individual brain is wired.

The military is using this method to speed learning and enhance cognitive performance in pilots. The method is so simple, brain stimulation devices can be purchased over the internet or you can make one yourself from nine-volt batteries. But the DIY approach renders the user an experimental guinea pig.

So all that light socket licking made me a genius. Unfortunately the lead paint counterbalanced my skills. "I guess?"

In our 2030 consumer trends report, many early adopters of consumer technologies such as AR, VR and digital assistants say they believe that in just ten years we will have thought-control over electronic devices, and even be able to share thoughts with others. In other words: telepathy technology.

"This is one of the first demonstrations that non-invasive vagus nerve stimulation can enhance a complex cognitive skill like language learning in healthy people," said Matthew Leonard, Ph.D., an assistant professor, Department of Neurological Surgery, UCSF Weill Institute for Neurosciences, whose team developed the nerve stimulation device. Leonard is a senior author of the new study, alongside Bharath Chandrasekaran, Ph.D., professor and vice chair of research, Department of Communication Science and Disorders, Pitt School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences, and director of the Sound Brain Lab.

^^^Would be cool if you could "program" your body to do your day job... but your mind is actually watching a movie or surfing the internet.

Elon Musk warns A.I. could create an ‘immortal dictator from which we can never escape’

the experiment showed, in a concrete way, that humanity was at the dawn of a new era, one in which our thoughts could theoretically be snatched from our heads. What was going to happen, Dr. Gallant wondered, when you could read thoughts the thinker might not even be consciously aware of, when you could see people’s memories?
“That’s a real sobering thought that now you have to take seriously,” he told me recently.

Not a hint of soul or beat in the music (above link) pasted on the Boston Dynamics "official video". The days of thinking of these things as sterile as Robbie the Robot are long gone.

AI goal is to simulate soul, but for us to accept that if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, flys like a duck, it's a duck, there has to be a connection, and the Boston Dynamics twisted programmers perfectly choreographed the robot ensemble to one of the most danceable songs ever.

Who wouldn't feel something in their soul while dancing with this group with music like this: ]https://youtu.be/fn3KWM1kuAw
