Dropping this week's update a day early, but that's not due to a lack of content. In fact, there was so much to say on this week's updates that I pushed a couple to next week. \n\nAs always, thanks to those of you who pass things along. I sincerely appreciate hearing from you.\n\nAnd with that, here are some of the latest happenings at the intersection of business, technology, and the human experience.\n\nNueralink Patient Plays Chess - "The Force" is no longer limited to Obi Wan and Luke, which may be a little terrifying when considering what happened when it was used by the Dark Lord. Jokes aside, there continues to be exponential progress with the merging of humans and machines, but what are we not considering?\n\nPay Transparency Backlash - Mandating pay ranges be made publically available. What could possibly go wrong? I guess it depends on your definition of "going wrong," but let's just say there's no shortage of chaos recently. It's a complicated situation and unfortunately oversimplified solutions rarely work well for the complex.\n\nDeathbot Research Findings - Grief isn't easy to deal with, so maybe throwing AI at it will fix it? The research is coming out, and it's not looking good for AI. However, I anticipate that won't stop the exponential growth of an industry built around leveraging technology to deal with grief. Perhaps we consider a more robust solution.\n\nShow Notes:\n0:00 - Introduction\n2:07 - Mind-Control Chess\n14:15 - Pay Transparency Chaos\n27:36 - Deathbot Research Findings
