ビッグテックは「ビッグ・ニューロ」を目指す。公共政策はどう対応できるか | ジェイク・オーチンクロス | TEDxBerkshires

脳コンピューターインターフェースが医療現場から一般消費者向け製品へと広がる可能性について、下院議員のジェイク・オーチンクロス氏が講演します。脳活動を読み取ってデジタルコマンドに変換する機器や、睡眠・集中・不安の管理を目的としたインプラントとアプリの組み合わせが、大手テクノロジー企業によって販売されるかもしれないと論じています。講演では、消費者に普及した場合の公共の福祉と企業による搾取の防止に関する三つの政策課題が取り上げられています。TEDxBerkshiresでの講演です。

• 脳活動をデジタルコマンドに変換する脳コンピューターインターフェース
• 睡眠・集中・不安管理のためのインプラントやアプリの消費者向け販売の可能性
• 福祉と企業による搾取防止に関する三つの政策課題（講演者: ジェイク・オーチンクロス氏, TEDxBerkshires）

Congressman Jake Auchincloss predicts that Big Tech will try to become Big Neuro by marketing brain-computer interfaces: electronic devices that directly translate brain activity into digital commands, or that induce brain activity by bypassing the usual sensory pathways. For example, imagine a microchip implant + injection that then allows you to use an app to put yourself to sleep, get into flow at work, or manage anxiety and depression. In this TEDx talk, Congressman Auchincloss raises three public policy questions that must be addressed to promote general welfare and prevent corporate exploitation if brain-computer interfaces scale to consumers. Congressman Jake Auchincloss is serving his third term representing the Massachusetts Fourth. In addition to his work on the House Committee on Energy & Commerce, his areas of focus include healthcare, clean energy, gun violence, and building a strong middle class. Jake was born and raised in Newton, Massachusetts, the son of a surgeon and a scientist. They showed him the value of curiosity and hard work. From the moment he could read, Jake loved American history. After graduating from Harvard College, Jake joined the Marines. He commanded infantry in Afghanistan and special operations in Panama. Upon returning home, Jake continued his service as a three-term city councilor in Newton. While working at City Hall on nights and weekends, Jake built a career in business, running product development at both a Fortune 100 insurance company and a cybersecurity startup. He has degrees in Economics and Finance from Harvard University and MIT Sloan. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
