Yeah, all of this news sounds cool, but I’m skeptical when all we hear is good things, especially after such tumultuous monkey trials.
I’m just waiting for a whistle blower to dump a bunch of evidence a decade from now showing all the horrific Unit 731- esque shit they’re currently covering up in the name of science. But by that point we’ll be receiving all our news directly into our cerebral cortex using “Musk-X” brand implants, so it will never be seen or reported on. And yes, even the poors have them; their units are subsidized by the unavoidable ads being drilled directly into their subconscious.
All you folks with kids have such a bright future for them to look forward to!
I genuinely hope this works out for this guy, and everyone else who could benefit from it. This dude volunteered because basically he might as well risk dying in return for a meaningful quality of life. That’s an awful situation to be in.
But the fact is, Musk is a self absorbed narcissistic conman, and he has never taken his customers safety seriously in any of his businesses. You don’t beta test self driving cars on public roads if you care about people’s lives.
This is CERTAINLY not going to work well. There’s NO benefit to having a chip inside people’s brains when we already have the tech to read brain patterns from outside the skull. They could’ve spent their time and money making the algorithms for that type of sensor better. Instead, they’ve developed a way to kill disobedient slaves.
And now we wait. Quick reminder about the Monkeys, which still haunt me.

“Musk-X”, dying monkeys… this is all sounding a little familiar…

That’s probably not going to work out well.

That sounds chillingly similar to that episode in Fall of the House of Usher.
D:
Another quick reminder that what happened to those monkeys is actually pretty common for medical trials and not really out of the ordinary.
