Promises of transformative military technology were around every corner at the Special Operations Forces conference, but few compared to the idea of upgrading human beings themselves.
“I think that’s the future. It’s getting there where we’re going to be able to create superhumans,” Alex Guerrero, the medical practitioner best known for his work on the “TB12 Method” with legendary NFL quarterback Tom Brady, told the Special Operations Forces Week audience here.
For the Pentagon, that’s the extreme end of a rather wide spectrum, and one that’s not ready to implement on a significant scale. But military leaders already have embraced the broader idea of optimal human performance. No longer is the focus only on how high soldiers can jump, how fast they can run or how quickly they’re able to solve problems in a high-stakes environment.
The best, most advanced equipment has long been a part of U.S. military might, but the focus increasingly is turning to not just how humans can use that technology, but how the two can operate together in an almost symbiotic manner to create capabilities far beyond what people can accomplish on their own.
“We want this operator to be super users of their environment across multiple domains, so they’re a little bit [able] to see around corners,” Army Col. Jarret Mathews, director of the Joint Acquisition Task Force at U.S. Special Operations Command, said during a presentation at the special forces conference here.
