    We often fantasize about telepathy, moving objects with our minds like a Jedi, but for some, this sci-fi dream is becoming a medical reality. In this episode, we deconstruct the "magic" of Brain-Computer Interfaces to reveal how wet biology talks to dry silicon, and how a storm of salty ions can act as a universal remote for the world.

    We check the 7-day weather forecast without a second thought, trusting it to tell us whether to pack an umbrella. But how does a computer "know" what the sky will do next week? It feels like a guess, but it's one of the most complex calculations on Earth. This episode opens the black box of digital simulation to find the simple, brilliant rules computers use to build a copy of our world... and predict its future.
