Remind me again, how many monkeys died an excruciating death because of this implant?
He also says Teslas are fully self driving, and we know the truth about that.
Any idiot can say any dumb ol thing that pops into their brain. It takes some wisdom not to.
But most importantly they will stream ads into your brain
I do audiology research and can tell you right now, short of a cochlear implant -no we can't. And we are easily about two decades away from anything close. And even then, a CI can't make music sound as good as your ears. There is no 'one' place in the brain you can imput music into. The most dense and easiest place to input the music is in the cochlea, like a cochlear implant does. Every place up the chain then branches out to thousands of connections and makes it harder and harder. And every step higher up that you try to interface into means you are skipping the initial signal generator and lose out on all the needed fidelity. The next step above a CI is an ABI, auditory brainstem inplant. And they sound so bad, just going one stop up from the cochlea, that those users barely can understand speech and only in the best settings. And normally after about a year of auditory therapy with it. Realistically we tell people (the handfull a year who will end up with one) that they should expect to get sound awareness, and that's it, from their ABI. And now Elon talks about wanting to go another half dozen steps up from that and magically have the fidelity to make it sound like music?? GTFO. This guy is a moron and doesn't know what he is talking about.
Plus, it's really not worth the problems associated with brain chips. Even the Neuralink Human Test subjects ran into the same problem we've faced for decades: the connecting tissue dies. It might work for a few months and then people are going to need ANOTHER brain surgery to either remove it or fix it, if it even works multiple times to begin with.
I wonder who they're going to name the disease after when repeated Nueralink failures cause irreparable lifelong disease.
Biden, of course.
And it will not let you vote unless there's an R next to the ballot selection, otherwise it tells your brain to drop the pen
Bold of you to think that you might be allowed to not vote according to the "approved plan".
You know, "for your convenience" and all.
I wouldn't trust anyone to put this device in my head, but Musk is the absolute last person I would trust. Look at what he did to twitter and now imagine he has direct access to your brain.
Elon musk also says it'll let you shit flowers and breathe hard vaccum. Melon husk just makes shit up whenever he feels like it. It's not going to stream music into your brain. They still can't even get it to stop killing the testing animals.
Which means ads can also be streamed. Heck no.

And subliminal messages below detection range?
Can neuralink give you cravings for specific foods and beverages (Coke) without even bothering with any media?
This technology's moving too fast. They need to chew it over with Twix.
I mean, once you've figured out how to play music in someone's mind, it's only a matter of time before you figure out what parts of the brain to activate to cause cravings, impulsive behavior or puts you in a suggestible state.
Nuralink:
I can already stream music into my head, and all without invasive surgery. What an innovation.
Yes, but imagine trains but worse! Why aren't you excited??
Next thing you’ll tell me they’ll be selling monthly subscriptions to use those trains.
Actually it’s only available in 3 week subscription increments. Payable by a proprietary form of digital cheque
Where the fuck are all the "Mark of the beast" people, am I living in crazy time? Fuck I'm living in crazy time....
They’re busy wearing something on their forehead to show their allegiance to a man who calls for the suffering of the least among us
They are protesting vaccines and 5G. Simple minds are not very observant of the obvious shit.
That would legitimately be horrible
Imagine being forced to listen to Rick Ashley night and day
The advertisements would kill me.

Do exactly what we want, down to the movements of your eyes, or you will be in unimaginable pain.
I don't see what is funny about this. It absolutely will be used for egregious human rights violations.
anyone who is stupid enough to get that almost deserves it
What if you're forced to get it? Think, fool.
I just assumed that's illegal, although if were talking America, I guess it makes sense
I'm talking about human rights protected by the United Nations. Your rights are covered no matter where you're from. Why on earth would you think this is an American problem? Please be educated.
I'm just saying, america seems like a country where this is more likely to be overlooked, than other, more developed countries.
Your prejudices aside, it has nothing to do with the discussion about Neuralink or the rights of future humans who may be affected by rights violations. Your comments just seem to be making a lot of noise and complaining? Not sure where you're trying to go with this. Sorry buddy.
I was not going anywhere, lighthearted comment, no more
Sounds like backpedaling to me? Goodness your debate coach should be fired
If you have ADHD, you don't even need a Neuralink chip. Music is always playing in your head, whether you want it or not.
For example, seeing this post just triggered a rickroll in my head and I can't turn it off.
The trick isn't to turn it off, it's to change the station.
Rah rah Rasputin.
More like .... a permanent watermark in your vision whether you are awake or asleep for 'X.com' ... or you have to pay $9.99 a month to remove it.
"Baby shark, do da do"
Too many cooks, too many cooks.
Am I the only one thinking, what if they hack it and make people's heads explode? I'm good on all of this if it's ever a thing. Considering how much control they have over cars remotely, you know they will have full control of this, and that's pretty scary.
Head explode? Unlikely
Debilitating seizures? Probably quite easy once you get into the software
I doubt it'll contain any explosives, but I wouldn't totally dismiss the thought because musk
and a hidden bomb in it in case you might be a terrorist
