Several tech billionaires are openly or secretely funding
broadband mind computer interfacing projects:
"Last year Bryan Johnson, founder of the online payments company Braintree, starting
making news when he threw $100 million behind Kernel, a startup he founded to enhance
human intelligence by developing brain implants capable of linking people’s thoughts to
computers.
Johnson isn’t alone in believing that “neurotechnology” could be the next big thing. To
many in Silicon Valley, the brain looks like an unconquered frontier whose importance
dwarfs any achievement made in computing or the Web."
