If you did not attend and fully participate in class, please complete the following to make up

1. Choose one article on Riz Virk’s Medium blog (https://rizstanford.medium.com/) , read it, and

2. Watch the recording of the class session on YouTube or Zoom
(https://asu.zoom.us/rec/share/Kd6-

(includes transcript and chat).
3. Post your written reflections to the following items — aim for 2-3 sentences per section:
Overall comments on Riz’s talk
Identify two questions that you would ask Riz about the future of technology and humanity that
weren’t asked in the session
Describe your experience (if any) with virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) or any virtual
worlds. If you don’t have any experience, how might you decide to get involved in the future,

don’t have any sci-fi that you like, identify three works of sci-fi that you are curious to learn more
about.
Share your thoughts on how we might use brain-computer interfaces for good uses. There are
lots of risks and opportunities for harmful uses, but I’m curious what everyone thinks about how
to use it in a positive way.
Respond thoughtfully to at least 2 classmates’ posts, adding something new to the discussion. You
are welcome to respond to posts on the discussion board or comments made by classmates in the
recording or in the chat.
