Overview

"I Am Human" tells the origin story of the world’s first “cyborgs” - three humans for whom the restorative potential of brain technology is no sci-fi daydream. As we follow their journeys with implantable brain interfaces, we’re forced to reconcile with the larger societal implications: will the same technologies that heal disease and dysfunction lead to super human abilities, telepathic communication, and cognitive enhancement?
