Andrew Huberman - The Frontier of Neurotechnology - [Invest Like the Best, EP.494]

Huberman argues the leading AI labs' true endgame is non-invasive neural read/write technology, not language models.

• Four companies, one real goal: Huberman names Meta, OpenAI, Anthropic, and Neuralink (plus Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, Marc Andreessen, Dario Amodei, Elon Musk) as the 'big four' effectively racing to build non-invasive brain read/write technology, calling it 'the real arms race of AI.'
• Non-invasive brain tech timeline: An MIT-developed eye mask that stimulates eye movements to speed sleep onset and amplify REM is reportedly 7-12 months from release; vagal-nerve stimulators and genetically-targeted optogenetic-style stimulation via viral vectors are framed as near-term, with entrepreneurial biohacking adoption expected within ~12 months.
