What if Your Boss Could Track Your Private Thoughts? The Dangers of Neurotech | Amanpour and Company
It’s no secret technology is getting smarter and faster, especially in light of recent controversy over the dangers of A.I. Author Nita Farahany is particularly concerned about how rapid advances in technology could enable invasive tracking of brain function. In her new book, "The Battle for Your Brain," Farahany warns of the threat posed by emerging neurotechnology on our freedom of thought. She tells Walter Isaacson how governments might protect cognitive liberty.
