Does anyone know about Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation? It can apparently be used to stimulate concentration, ‘flow’ and allow low level wireheading.
Seems like if its as easy as the article implies it might be cheaper and more effective than nootropics for cognitive enhancement etc.
There’s a reddit on the topic.
If you search LW, you’ll see it’s come up before. No one’s reported impressive results yet.
I’m tempted to self experiment on this. But I suspect that without a background in neuroscience I might end up accidentally taking stupid risks.
