For that thing that killed hundreds of monkeys? Yeah, sounds like a great plan.
"only" 15-17 monkeys, but thousands of other animals, insanely depressing. the more you read about it, the more you will start to actually believe that the death of one particular primate could indeed be beneficial for humanity ...
Ole Musky should step up and prove how safe it is. If he gets one, I'll definitely get one.
One implant to rule them all, one implant to find them, One implant to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them
He behaves like he already has one.
So then the thing that killed the monkeys was the smelling their smug farts all day? It all makes sense now...
He thinks we’re living in a simulation.
First rule of technology: if the increase in complexity and decrease in reliability outweigh the added tangible value, don't implement it. This is why it's usually best to avoid "smart" appliances or, you know, brain implants.
Lol this guy can't even make a car that doesn't kill someone or have a bumper that doesn't fall off
If someone besides Musk was running things, I might be excited about the potential for progress… as it stands, though, I just can’t trust the guy.
Given what is coming out about how the animal test subjects were treated, you'd be better off letting a random dentist poke at your brain
Same.
Although I can't say I would trust one from a FAANG company much more.
I'll bet you need a lifetime subscription with that and get a blue verification mark on your forehead.
A 30 day lifetime subscription.
I can see how a quadrapoligic or someone with ALS would be excited for this trial. I hope it goes well. It could give someone that is trapped in their body a new way to communicate with their loved ones.
Does it support full auto-think?
Whoever thinks getting one is a good idea already has it enabled.
I already have that and I'm not impressed
I mean look on the bright side. It’s Musk’s sycophants who would line up to die for something like this.
People would need to be force to insert this shit to be competitive in the market. This sucks
Is anyone up for starting a non religious Amish society?
This sucks
Nice move there AI. I see what you're doing.
Always mount a scratch test subject before testing or reconfiguring.
They're all dead already.
