Woah, I just read from that article you sent about ultrasound:it’s a huge opportunity for research. If you can “turn up” or “turn down” any brain region at will, safely enough to mess around with it on healthy human subjects, you can develop a functional atlas of the brain, where you find out exactly what each part is doing. That absolutely blew my mind.

Let's talk about art. In the wake of AI art generators being released, it's become pretty clear this will have a seismic effect on the art industry all across - from illustrators, to comic artists, to animators, many categories see their livelihood threatened, with no obvious "higher level" opened by this wave of automation for them to move to. On top of this, the AI generators seem to have mostly been trained with material whose copyright status is... dubious, at the very least.
