Neuroscientist Anne-Laure Le Cunff on her book Tiny Experiments and systematic curiosity | S07 E07

Bullish:

• $PUBLISHING - There is a surprising and strong demand for in-depth, long-form content despite the prevalence of AI-driven tools and summaries, indicating potential opportunities in the publishing industry.

  • “I've been incredibly surprised at how much people are actually craving the the experience of losing yourself into someone else's ideas and going really deep and connect with the research and the content.”

• $METACOG - Metacognition, the practice of paying attention to one's own thoughts and behaviors, is seen as a valuable skill for decision-making and intentional living, suggesting potential growth in related tools or services.

  • “Metacognition. And it's really paying attention to your own thoughts and your own behaviors, having this this kind of, like, second order level of thinking about the way you navigate your life and your work and being a little bit more intentional.”

• $BRAINCOMP - While brain-computer interfaces show promise, current limitations in portability suggest a need for further development before widespread practical application.

  • “So it's an amazing first step. But at this stage, you still need to be sitting in this giant MEG scanner. So it would also require something a bit more portable, I think, for us to be able to use that technology in a more meaningful way.”
