Wolpe on "60 Minutes": Reading Minds for Cookies and Car Accidents
If you missed it this Sunday, as our own Dr. Paul Wolpe himself did for being in an airplane, you can catch it again here--the 13-minute segment from this past Sunday's "60 Minutes" where neuroethics is the focus. Leslie Stahl discusses the present and future potential of "mind reading" technologies, neuromarketing, and the ethics of a future where thoughts, intentions, and our minds are no longer private with AJOB's own, Paul Wolpe.
The title of this post only makes sense if you watch the video all the way to the end--but trust me--it's worth it. Then ask yourself, will Dr. Wolpe be one of the early adopters of the first "mind reading" machines to really find out which of his daughters dinged his car? (Just kidding...)
