You’ll rent frontal cortex space to AI processesing and be happy.
That’s stupid, Total waste of resources. I use UberBrain and rent my brain and body out from 9 to 5. Sure. I wake up sore and have no idea what my body has been doing or where it was, but I get ten dollars an hour for basically going to sleep for 8 hours.
I just hope the first victim will be a techbro
The first person to receive the neuralink is a paralyzed individual with no quality of life. This may help them communicate with their loved ones.
I don’t get why people don’t see that this is a medical device.
People do understand this is a medical device. What you seem to not be getting in this situation is that Elon Musk is an absolutely horrible human who has a long track record of badness. There are plenty of reasons to be pessimistic that this project will end badly for people who aren’t him.
Awhile back it was discovered that Tesla had quietly programmed Autopilot to disengage if it detected a crash was eminent. Why? Because they were asked to report how many crashes occurred while autopilot was active. Their solution was to game the system rather than actively try to solve any potential problems and be honest / critical of what they had built. This is a system that already has the potential to get people killed. Do you suppose that sort of unscrupulous decision making is going to stop when his people are implanting devices in human brains?
