Talking Ketamine PodcastEpisode 23 - Ketamine & NeuroethicsTune into Talking Ketamine, Episode 23: Ketamine & Neuroethics, for a mind-bending exploration. We delve into how ketamine's unique altered states of consciousness, like ego dissolution and dissociation, could serve as a blueprint for future brain-computer interfaces. This episode reveals how neurochemistry might inspire technology to design new modes of consciousness, going beyond simply repairing the brain to potentially enhancing or redesigning consciousness itself.Learn more from the study discussed: "Neurochemical Horizons: Elon Musk, Ketamine, and the Future of Neural Interface Design" (DOI: 10.13140/RG.2.2.20903.05287) - https://www.researchgate.net/publication/392269296_Neurochemical_Horizons_Elon_Musk_Ketamine_and_the_Future_of...2025-07-2109 min
