Yeah.

If I could go, look, I can't compel you to say your password, but I can take this little scanner out and go and find your password.

For example, I was reading about a school, like an elementary school in China where the children wear these headbands that vaguely measure brain activity.

It's definitely not recording exactly what they're thinking, but it can give us information about how focused they are.

And I think these began as a biofeedback kind of thing where the kids can become more focused.

They can get feedback on how focused their thoughts are.

And it's very meditative.

But then you can also start using it to catch the kids that aren't focused during class.

And it doesn't take much to imagine a world where we can collect more specific data from their brains and go, hey, you were thinking about cheating on this test.

And so therefore, I'm going to treat you differently.

And what do we do about that?

We're not there yet.

The technology hasn't yet forced us to bring this in front of a judge or a court.

But I think we'll be there pretty soon.

Oh, I know.

Yeah.

Imagine that your boss knocks on your door.

Hey, Michael.

So I'm looking at your brain scans and you were having a lot of fun for two hours today.

You shouldn't be having that much fun at work.
