Is there anyway to do it magnetically using inducted currents? I doubt you can stop the saw that way, but you should be able slow the blade down so it does not do as much damage.

A tablesaw goes through a finger as if it is nothing. Fingers can move at speeds of dozens of centimeters per second. So anything that takes longer a dozen microseconds to stop the blade will not be good enough to let you keep your finger.
