THE FUTURE IS HERE

Kevin Fischer – Human Cognitive Enhancement Interventions

Cognitive enhancement interventions provide us with powerful tools to aid in writing the future. Through increased understandings of the impact of food, drugs and supplements on our biology, we have a great deal of control for enhancement beyond our baseline. These tools can help achieve small gains for those with above average intelligence, however they can represent enormous increases in the quality of life for people starting with average to below average intelligence. How can we encourage adoption of these tools among the broader population of humanity?

==Writing the Future==

Of special significance is the theme ‘Writing the Future’. The aim is to encourage refined communication about the future in creative ways, and thereby promote serious attention to the opportunities and risks we are facing.
