How Close Are We?
Brain-computer interfaces and neural implants are in early development (Neuralink, BrainGate), but cannot transfer consciousness. Digital punishment is explored in debates about AI rights and virtual sentencing, but is not practiced. Medical technology is advancing rapidly, with ethical concerns about misuse (e.g., remote surgery, experimental implants). The episode is a cautionary tale, but the foundational tech is being researched.
