I'd like see Google do something to make me smarter.
For example, I'd love to be able to do something Matrix style, "Learn Complex Analysis" and then Google creates a curriculum and feeds it to my brain. Ideally this would happen during downtime (such as sleeping or on the train).
Brain science seems pretty far from injecting material into the brain, but what about finding ways to increase my comprehension when I read stuff. Reading content is so slow and generally requires my undivided attention. Unfortunately its the only way I know to learn anything non-trivial.
