The Cognitive Frontier: Who Owns Your Mind?

​One evening at the edge of mind and machine.

​The Cognitive Security Task Force at Stanford HAI presents an evening with the people shaping human attention, perception, memory, judgment, and decision-making.

​Part salon, part night market, part open studio field trip—we're kickstarting conversations across AI, neuroscience, media, health, business, and policy to discuss what emerging technologies mean for cognitive security and liberty.

​Featuring:

• ​Lightning talks and panels with innovators and researchers from neurotech and BCI companies, consumer health startups, frontier AI labs, and social impact nonprofits

• ​Interactive demos and booths, including wearable brain-computer interfaces and AI persuasion tools you can talk to

​Come curious. Art, drinks, and food included.

​Full lineup dropping soon. Part of Human+Tech Week 2026.
