Elon Musk wants to implant millions of people with Neuralink brain chips
Elon Musk wants to implant millions of people with Neuralink brain chips
Billionaire’s comments come after neurotech startup unveils new capabilities of its brain-computer interface
Elon musk: is inventing brain chips
People: oh okay.
Elon musk: wants people to use them
People:
can we implant them all in elon instead
"business wants to sell lots of products" fucking duh who cares.
As it requires going inside me, i wound never use it regardless of what it can do.
And millions of people want Elon Musk to get one himself.
Pretty sure Elon musk also wants to hangout at Epstein's Island again for intercourse with minors.
You first Ketamusk.
Yeah, nah. I see less Night City and more…permanent night city in that were all blind and/or dead. Although maybe the rampant all-powerful capitalism of the cyberpunk lore would still happen.
New YA dystopian fiction plot entering reality.
Elon wants to make more money. One of the ways he can envision making more money is selling brain implants and the procedure to install them
Fuuuuuuckk no.
And anyone stupid enough to get one deserves the brain damage that comes with it. Hell, maybe they’ll then buy Twitter and run it into the ground. Oh wait, some other moron did that.
Edit> Found the Musk sycophants :)
It would probably be wiser to implant a bullet in your brain then let that man do neurosurgery on you.
With his ethics there's no way I'd let any company controlled by him attach itself to my brain.
I have a hard time imagining that for any profit driven corporation, but most especially him.
He shoulda gone first 🧠🔫
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.
Godspeed to all the brain dead idiots who will sign up for this, and will become even more literally brain dead after getting the implant.
They're injecting microchips! Said no antivaxx about this ever.
Millions of people want to plant Elon Musk six feet under.
I bet this evil fuck has all kinds of patents around this idea so when someone who isn't a psychopath James Bond villain wants to help people with disabilities by developing a similar device...they won't be able to.
I'd like to implant something in Elon's brain. It's called a pick-axe handle.
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
No thank you.
The thing he seems to have forgotten is that unlike the automotive industry where the regulation is designed to allow companies to fuck up then fix things as long as they have the systems in place to fix the fuck up and to know when they fucked up, the medical device industry is very much designed so that the default stance is "this is dangerous and will kill people" unless you can prove otherwise
I have seen the engineering failure that is the cybertruck, no thanks.
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.
Nah.
Approved. Let him pay and let Darwin sort it out.
I bet the guy down the street wants to sell millions of hot dogs.
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.
Gotta harvest massive amounts of training data somehow. Thats the way to stay ahead.
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.
Not a chance.
I want to implant Elon with 00 buck
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.
Downvote because I don't give a flying fuck what Musk wants and random shit about musk is not technology
