Brave new interactions: performance-enhancing drugs for human-computer interaction

In sports, some athletes resort to performance enhancing drugs to gain an advantage. Similarly, people use pharmaceutical drugs to aid learning, dexterity, or concentration. We look at how such drugs could potentially be used to enhance interactions. We envision that in the future, people might take pills along with their vitamins in the morning to improve how they can interact over the day. In addition to performance boosts this, e.g., could also include improvements in enjoyment or fatigue.
