I spoke with Christina Smith, Olympian on the Athlete Advisory Commission for the Enhanced Games, as well as Director of Athlete Relations. We talked about the Enhanced Games- a sporting competition where athletes can use performance enhancing substances, and even potential robotic tech, to win the games. I first heard about this when I read an article that Peter Thiel was backing this venture. It's since attracted way more attention since it announced that athletes who break world records will earn $1,000,000.
