KENNETH FORD

  • Dr. Ford appeared on the show a couple of years ago
  • Computer scientist specializing in artificial intelligence
  • Worked on space exploration, now working on human performance and resilience in extreme environments
  • We need to think hard about how we want to use AI and robotics
    • Just because we CAN use it, doesn’t mean we should
  • He is CEO for Florida Institute of Human and Machine Cognition

HUMAN PERFORMANCE

  • Much of the work that Dr. Ford does is around improving and sustaining human performance
  • We now can track performance which allows us to improve performance
  • There are drugs that can simulate exercise
    • For athletes, they would be performance enhancing
    • For people who are bed-ridden or astronauts, these drugs are very important
  • The most impressive records are those that have been held for a long time
  • We can continue to increase performance — we have not reached the pinnacle
  • As we get older, performance and health tend to merge
    • As a world-class athlete when you’re young, you are not necessarily healthy
  • The natural state of ketosis is pretty well understood and has big effects
    • Exogenous ketosis is less well understood and benefits are not as clear
      • They will be looking at this further
    • Ketosis from liver production is a different state than if you ingest exogenous ketones
