sure; it’s not like the monkeys and the first human person you did it to didn’t die or anything…

Not to say that anything about the project is good, but the first human implantee is very much alive.

I’d like to implant something in Elon’s brain. It’s called a pick-axe handle.

db2 ,

I really don’t understand why anyone is giving that goofball a platform.

sunzu2 ,

He pays for it lol

This is 2024, you should know this.

then we circle jerk him in the comments, so we are also part of the circus

nobody is giving him a platform so he had to spend $44b to buy one.

AshMan85 ,

I do not get how this asshole gets approved for this when he can’t even make a car correctly.

I would love a brain implant. I want to live in the Matrix, I want to have the Feed. Just not from him. Never from him.

If there were a software that aught to be in control of the user (rather than the developer) then it’s software running inside of you.

When things really matter all we have is conversation or violence. If our understanding of neuroscience gets good enough… this is where violence can/will happen.

The first patient had a bunch of wires dislodge but according to the company they’re ‘more or less stable’ after some revisions, so it sounds like a typical Musk product ready for mass production lol

I have seen the engineering failure that is the cybertruck, no thanks.

Gotta harvest massive amounts of training data somehow. Thats the way to stay ahead.

DaddleDew ,

Day 1 after implantation: this is great! I now have photographic memory of everything! Best decision ever.

Day 20: I’ve memorized so much so fast, I’m going to have to go for the next higher up subscription level to unlock more storage.

Day 200: I’m running out of space again. Going for the plus subscription.

Day 600: ran out of storage space again. I can’t afford the next higher subscription. I’m going to have to start deleting unnecessary memories. My brain has lost its natural ability to make and retain memories by itself. I can’t even function on a daily basis without free storage space.

Day 700: I have run out of memories that I’m willing to part away with. I still can’t afford the higher subscription. Luckily there is a cheaper tier. All I have to do is give NeuraLink full access and rights over my memories for marketing and AI training purposes.

Day 900: They have increased the cost of subscription. I can’t afford it. I’m going to lose half of my storage space. I have two days to choose which of my memories to keep. The rest will be no longer accessible to me, but will still be used by Neuralink for their own purposes as they own those memories now.

Day 1200: the chip will no longer be supported next month. I can’t afford the new model. It will be disabled in 30 days.

Day 1235: I have just found this diary. It explains a lot. I only wished it told me what my name is.

You forgot the part where you agreed to let them harvest your organs if you fail to pay your subscription fees.

Also, suddenly you’re unable to say negative things about Elon Musk for some reason.

He hopes to woo advertisers back by beaming ads directly into your most treasured memories

You’ll get all of Elon’s brain farts beamed straight to your brain.

Don't really like the guy but the implants are for people with disabilities that stop/hinder their ability to interact with the digital world, which is certainly fun and exciting for those who want that ability. It's a shame Musk is the figurehead for many of these projects because his brand is dirt to anyone that isn't neck deep in blockchain, AGI, culture war, and general scam content.

givesomefucks ,

They’ve existed for decades but required a “helmet” like device.

There’s no people waiting for this who can’t use the existing and safe tech.

We were literally doing this with monkeys 50 years ago, and Musk killed all his monkey subjects because they couldn’t even do basic brain surgery in a sterilized lab

Now he wants to do it to humans.

I really hope this technology advances enough to help people in their daily lives. By neuralink or other people idc as long as it’s good.
