Elon Musk’s Brain Implant Startup Is Ready to Start Surgery
Elon Musk’s Brain Implant Startup Is Ready to Start Surgery
Neuralink has FDA clearance to start messing with people’s heads—and not just figuratively.

This is some of the coolest tech thats currently within our grasp. It will not only completely cure a lot of ailments but lead to fdvr.
Id burn alive a million monkeys if it lets some 5 year suddenly walk. Id burn double that if I can get some isekai catgirl harem going on.
We literally torture animals just to make sure makeup is safe, get mad about that. This is some serious sci fi shit that will open an insane amount of door, regardless of who is behind it. Pick you battles.
People that mindlessly hate on something just because Musk is involved are as brain dead as the ones that constantly praise him without thought.
You’re welcome to volunteer to be the first patient, I mean experiment
And those practices of testing on animals are inhumane and are being phased out.
Edit: Oh, and we all hate it not (just) because it’s musk, but also because it’s had next to no success in animal trials and offers no benefits other than data tracking inside our heads
How else are we going to test brain to computer interfaces? All animal testing is inhuman but some of it is necessary to advance. Like I said, go complain about animal testing for vanity products instead of society altering tech. But you won't, because you don't give a fuck about the animals, you only care about the musk circle jerk.
We test them when they’re actually ready to be tested. These are clearly not even ready for animal based testing, let alone human testing.
These devices are so far from ready they shouldn’t even be near a living animal
Do you have insider knowledge on these technologies? How do you know it wasn't ready? Do you think they would be at human trials if it wasn't ready a year ago for animal testing.
My point anyways is that we shouldn't be doing any testing for things like mascara, but brain computer interfaces are a valid reason.
Regardless, we do worse for things that are a lot less warranted than this. Your phone has inhumane treatment of actual humans written all over it. Your whole 1st world luxury life screams of sin but you waste your time getting mad on things that could bring about great benefit just because of a name associated with it.
Keep screaming about it, chimp.
Nearly every test subject died. That’s pretty clearly not ready. Don’t need insider information to know that killing the majority of your test subjects means your product isn’t ready for the next stage of testing, rather it’s ready to go back to the drawing board and start over with something that won’t kill all its subjects.
Now you’re just being racist.
Lmao, how am I being racist?
Calling people “chimps” is a very common slur used against black people
Okay, you are actually an idiot. You don't think, that in this context, I might be just calling you a dumb monkey? I don't know what color skin you have and I'm definitely not trying to insult it. Jesus fuck, the main subject is literally monkeys.
Doesn’t really matter. It’s still racist language used in an insult.
It's first and foremost a noun to designate an animal. When I say you have as much intelligence as a monkey with brain trauma, I don't mean a black person with brain trauma. When they are saying they are testing on chimps, the article actually does not refer to black people.
Im pretty sure you are the racist one if you automatically associate the word in such a context with black people. It hadn't even crossed my mind. Most people don't think "black people" whenever they hear the word chimp.
I hope you're an early adopter, given the level of resolve you have towards this.
Hell no, but I won't shame the ones that are either brave or desperate enough
We should not be relying on desperate people to volunteer for life ending medical experiments because capitalism has failed them. This is a shit tier take
