If you’ve ever wondered whether it is possible to hack into our nervous system, the answer is yes. Professor Andrew Huberman’s podcast, Huberman Lab, runs parallel to his neurobiology practice at Stanford School of Medicine. Huberman’s podcast breaks down why life is what it is through a scientific lens, exploring the tools and techniques one can use to make the most of living. In the latest episode, he distills down the way risk-taking behaviours and artificial intelligence alter the nature of the human experience with software innovator Marc Andreessen. Trait openness, for example, is one way of cultivating an innovator mindset, i.e., the spirit of being open to experiencing new things and seeing the world as a set of problems to solve. Huberman also discusses the viewpoint of an AI-led future where artificial intelligence becomes the backbone of regular functionality.
