Defending the Right to Think Freely in the Age of Neurotechnology
by Nita A. Farahany, Review 4 of 2023
This is a timely examination of some key questions we should be asking ourselves as neurotechnology and AI become more and more common. Should we be giving our brain data away in exchange for convenience? Who should have access to brain related data? What does the future of brain enhancement look like? Without question, there is a lot to be gained from emerging neurotech, but are we equipped to manage the full range of consequences? Dr. Farahany explores these questions and more in this intriguing and accessible book.
This is a great read for those who are using brain related technology, want to be, or are interested in bioethics and privacy in the digital age.
