.@_robtoews predicts humans will be able to communicate through telepathy by 2030. He argues the breakthrough has already been demonstrated in research labs, where scientists have translated thoughts directly into words using BCIs. "I would actually say that telepathy has been achieved today. What I would define as telepathy is if you can think thoughts and have your thoughts translated into words that other people can read or hear. That's already been accomplished by BCIs." "Eddie Chang, who's one of the world's leading BCI researchers at UCSF, runs the neurosurgery department. His lab has demonstrated in recent years that you can implant BCI chips into people's brains, tell what they're trying to say, and turn those brain signals into actual words."

.@_robtoews predicts that by 2030, AI will become so integrated into everyday life that society will be debating whether AI systems should have rights. "I think five years from now, everyone will interact in very extensive ways with AIs and have close relationships with them that endure over time. We'll have AI employees, we'll have AI friends, we'll have AI doctors, and AI girlfriends and boyfriends, which is a punchline today. But that will be a mainstream thing." "AI will not just be in the digital world anymore. Humanoid robots will also start to proliferate. These things will have physical forms that look like us. As the models get better and better, we will eventually start to feel like maybe these are things are not just objects that we can abuse or treat as property. Maybe they do have something approaching sentience and maybe we need to be thinking about how to treat them properly." "It sounds ridiculous today, but it is worth noting that all the frontier labs have started hiring people to work on model rights, model sentience, model consciousness, etc."

Form 🤝 Function Rotor structure of our HPDM-350 was too cool not to share. Strong, stiff, light, and optimized for extreme thermal gradients while maintaining precise airgap control ♨️ ❄️

Did you know @NASA is sending a rotorcraft to Saturn's moon Titan? The Dragonfly mission will investigate Titan's diverse landscapes & organic chemistry.🪐🚁 Join us for a live webinar on July 16 at 2 pm ET to get the latest mission updates! Watch here:
