It's been a great partnership between @netholabs and @protocollabs ! I think this path to human augmention is critical to keep us empowered in the superintelligent era. Really grateful for everyone working on this!

Neurotech is Humanity’s Next Frontier!

I’ve been investing in neurotech since 2021 and working with teams building BCIs, NeuroAI, and connectomics. It now feels like AI did in ~2019.

We are entering an extraordinary era: neurotech already restores functions, it can enhance our capabilities, and will evolve what it means to be human.

PLC Neurotech is the fund backing the extraordinary founders and defining companies of this booming industry.

Classic pattern in biostasis:
- Someone thinks about preservation, decides they want to do it
- Tries to figure out the optimal solution
- Runs into an activation energy barrier
- Or some other problem preventing the optimal option that is not easily addressable
- They don't realize that signing up doesn't lock them into anything and they can always switch later
- Lose momentum, lose motivation, never sign up for preservation, permadeath 💀
Instead, consider signing up for preservation even if for one reason or another, the current option is maybe not what you consider optimal.
For example, signing up at sparksbrain.org/services.html is very easy to do online and doesn't require any upfront costs.
You can always just change your mind or switch to a different preservation option later

The human brain is approaching its ChatGPT moment.

I spent 6 months writing Phase Lock: a manifesto on how brain computer interfaces can help align AI and preserve human agency.
