Brain Training the next Generation – Jamie Wood 3/5

College students are supposed to arrive ready to learn, manage themselves and make consequential decisions. In reality, many are walking into adulthood with battered attention, uneven executive function and support systems built to react after things go wrong. Jamie Wood thinks that is a product problem. In part three, we look at AUTONOMIC's 18-to-24-year-old beachhead, early working-memory results, the gap between a buyer and a user, and how an AI coach might make useful brain science legible without turning it into another institutional lecture.
