yes, of course, we will get a point where we can say like, turn the lights off and on. but to me that has never been what is exciting. by focusing on simply moving things with the mind, i do think we take away from the real power of the technology which is being able to learn about our mind, being able to strengthen our mental faculties rather than just being able to do things so that we have to do less. the number one benefit we can bring to society and youngsters and the next generation is consciousness of mind. we have achieved far greater than any technology from the previous generation. much of the brain computer research has traditionally been to help people with restricted mobility and the breakthroughs prove that this could be a game changer. but now there are a whole host of headgear based neurotech companies springing up in the consumer space and one of those is a french start up nextmind, who have created a headset that lets you control computer interfaces just by thinking a
