• brain training games. I wonder whether training can be applied to every mental ability that can be measured?
• cognitive enhancers: timo talking about a call for more effort in producing effective cognitive enhancers. it’s a problem i guess because cognition isn’t problematised… unless it’s a condition, pharma can’t do medical trials about it. like viagra only becomes marketworthy once “erectile dysfunction” as been invented as a symptom. the brain fitness stuff will help… but i’d prefer that we don’t shoehorn enhancements into the symptom bucket but acknowledged it as a new category.
• chair asking when job drug tests are testing you are on the drugs! ethical issues. timo: some people who can afford it, and some not.

i remember neil p saying to me: “it’s not good to problematise certain thought processes”
