Musk: Brain implants 'ready for humans' — confident Neuralink could help the blind to see and the lame to walk
Elon Musk has brought the world reusable rockets, traffic-easing tunnels, new vactrain possibilities, fleets of electric vehicles, a low-orbit internet provider, and liberal apoplexy over his recent Twitter acquisition. Rather than rest on his laurels, the world's richest man indicated on Wednesday ...
That I can get onboard with. Anything outside of medical applications.. NOPE.
And don't mandate it. Fags.
It's only a matter of time before they cook up a fake emergency so they can mandate it. Evil gonna evil.
“We have to monitor your brain to protect from terrorisms”
They'd be in a World of Hurt if they monitored mine ..it's Fukd
If?
Don’t push him over the edge hamster, geez.
Tough love.
I've got some "implants" for their brains. 😏
"I see you're not up to date on your injections, allow me to administer a rapid lead vaccine."
Copper jacketed implants are the safest.
green tips are sufficient
Green tips. 😏
Can't be worse than Jared Fogel, Epstein, or bidens bumbling ass.
I'd say "monitor deez nuts" but the FBI fags would eagerly do so. Gotta be careful what you say around them, they're liable to take it as an invitation.
Monitor deez nyuts! ATF, pop them out ya mouth so the FBI can have a look.
And a robot knocks on your door, ready to kill you?
San Francisco enters the chat
If it's ED209, I welcome the challenge. If it's Terminator... well. See ya.
Psycho-pass vibes.
Literally what Joe Rogan said.. darn fools.
wow lol well it seems the logical conclusion
one need look no further than the prototype Uyghur Muslims where the CCP did some false flags then labeled them "trrists" and put them all into camps.
only on steroids
Yeah... oof. We're in for a wild ride. Psychos on the other side
Just wait until it starts to "help crazy people not be crazy". Then you'll see them forcing it on anyone who doesn't agree with them or had a gun.
you've had too much to think? governor on your brainwidth
I like that. "too much to think".....gonna have to steal this one.
can't steal what's freely given, fren!
Neuralink is going to feed your stream of conciousness into twatter.
Twitter immediately turns into 4chan lmao
Or if you're really into conspiracies help with the vaccine side-effects that will trigger for the majority in the next 4-7 years. It will be THE solution when the sheeple are crying out in pain.
Just imagine that being put on criminals to make them compliant and no longer a threat to society. They would label us criminals against the regime for wrong think. Crazy times indeed.
I don't believe the technology is there yet and won't be. How could it? So much bickering bullshit here on Earth for petty gains. The sentiments of Black Sabbath's "Wicked World" are as relevant today as it was in '70? '71? when released on debut album.
Doctors write out SSRIs which try and trick the brain to releasing serotonin, the action of which is broad and not that well understood... Kind of a dumb thing, really. The same goes with most psych drugs and why we're so primitive we target symptoms and have to guess (based on the symptoms).
That being said - assuming no nefarious business or feature creep (e.g. modern car central control systems, many such cases) it is a hard pass until they can sell something with real massive tangible benefits & hard to imagine what they would be...
Just like those "super AI wants to go Skynet" bullshit videos on YT & other sites, it's more Theranos (the VC blood scam company) than reality at this point.
It will be snekier than that. This will begin to phase phones out. Businesses will start integrating neuralink and inject it into every facet of life until you are compelled to get one. If you don't have one you'll be mocked and denied opportunities where if you had one it would be easy. They will try and compell you like with the vaxxine
Why do you need a phone when you can just have a conversation with voices in your head?
I don’t need a phone now lol
When Bluetooth first became a thing, one of my psych professors quipped “It used to be you could tell someone was schizo because they walked around talking to themselves. Now everybody does.”
They get bored of each other after a while and need new material.
I do both... already.
Talking to oneself doesn't always mean schizophrenia. My brother does it alot. He is about sane as you and me. He's a bit surly though
Yeah, my brother has actual schizophrenia. The hallucinations and attribute of malicious intentions to everything is a better tell. He could be Sitting in the livingroom and look outside and see a man walking on the sidewalk and be 100% convinced the man is with them and trying to hurt him. In reality its just a random dude walking, or in some cases not exist at all.
Maybe the brain chip will be the mark of the beast.
I know one thing though...even if this chip does help a person walk or a blind person see, there is no way that these fuckers would have the chip do ONLY that. These assholes want to control every thing about us, down to our thoughts. So there is no way they won’t ALSO have something in that chip that also allows them to manipulate a person how they want.
I though the vaccine was the mark of the beast. How many marks are there gonna be
That was practice. It was social conditioning to make way for the real deal
You sound like qtards, but you're probably right.
Pepe Farms remembers tattooed barcodes being the mark.
I dated a girl a decade ago with one, can confirm, it is the mark of the beast :(
I can believe it. Elon just opened a fucked up can-of-worms.
That's cool I've though about getting rid of my phone for a few months.
Deus Ex human revolutions has a plot point kinda like this. Vision goes glitchy as well as all the other augment glitch out, so they say go to the med center to get a chip upgrade. Dont fuckin do it. Makes the later game so much harder, when the bosses can flip your augments off because they now control you.
Oh ul have a choice like ice. At best ull have a choice bewteen the apple one and elons. Ul will be free to not have access to any services and be forced into o live outside of society.
Ignoring the spelling mistakes (assuming you're on mobile, sadly - someone REALLY needs to develop a good mobile keyboard)... I grew up on a wave of technology and sometimes being a "luddite" doesn't make you wrong.
Look to the Amish for an example. As a general community, they are people we ought to be emulating more of. Not Kim Kardashian or the latest blah blah bullshit.
I was standing in my shower
100% the amish just keep doubling their pop somehow the jews cant get to them
That's inevitable.
First they introduce it as a gee-whiz new cool technology for the up to date.
Then they shift to the convenience angle.
Then they make your life near impossible unless you buy in.
Then once there's a critical mass using it, they mandate it.
The good news is that the medical industry is still greedy as ever so good luck getting them to agree to do this to the masses for anything under half a million a pop.
But Elon is on our side look at Twitter. /s
Musk is just the latest in a string of people that this place falls in love with and then suddenly when they screw us over people act like they never saw it coming.
👆
If any of you "pedes" take the retard route and volunteer for this neurolink horseshit you deserve what you get.
And y’all thought the Matrix was a movie. (Klaus, The Architect, and Elon, Agent Smith, laugh maniacally and rub their hands fervently)
Edit: it’s not just that they want kill everyone down to 1B population. They will use them all for experimentation along the way to perfect the dream plans of eternal life. Jesus already offers that suckers! The experiments have already begun. Now get back in line for another booster pleb!
A lot of people would choose the blue pill.
Living as a fake rich person in the matrix vs a real wage slave for 50 years...
Prostitutes aren't that different from the matrix.
We know they fuck for money, but it feels good even with a jimmy hat.
Imagine the temptation they go through having been born with an ATM between their legs. I’m not trying to denigrate women. I’m being serious. I guess that’s why men and women are so different because most dudes would not be able to restrain from that kind of behavior. Women have better sense in that regard.
It's strange how a death cult has the goal of eternal life, but they do. Natural death is part of natural life, but they want to prolong their own lives until they are nothing but the living dead - much like the Ringwraiths, or Emperor Palpatine.
They make a mockery of natural life by using it solely for food and power, and a mockery of natural death by being so afraid of it they'd rather become walking corpses. They are afraid all the time. What a wretched way to live, if you can call it that.
Sounds hellish doesn’t it?
Klaus, The Architect.
Oh no, I’ve played this game before
I would say Elon is more like the Keymaker and Alex Jones is the Oracle
COMPLETELY AGREE. WAKE THE F UP PEOPLE.
*UCK
You dropped this
🤓you are Correct
The tech is great, and it's what's going to escalate humans beyond their limitations, in the same way faming freed us from being eternal nomads.
That said, I don't trust any corporation to be responsible with this. Corporate personhood needs to be abolished.
Wait until they can hack your implant and hold you hostage unless you pay.
You can already be bio-hacked, what do you think the vaccine was.
Post-human tech is the only way off this rock.
Comparison to pharma is perfect.
That would be dope as an option yea. Or for people with cerebral palsy etc many applications.
We already have something like this, the cortex implants for people with severe palsy or seizures where they can instantly stop shaking with the flick of a switch. Very cool technology to see in practice where a Parkinson's patient can suddenly feed themselves with a spoon with it.
I've seen that for Parkinsons! They go from completely disabled to steady in no time it's really crazy
Potentially reduce or eliminate addiction..
Addiction? That's kind of weak. The implication of the word "addiction" means we can use pedophiles and groomers as the test subjects. Just need a controlled environment.
Yea. The offside would be to reduce or eliminate people's connection to religion though right? If I were an evil commumist.
I've no idea, just speciation. But you raise a good point, especially how many people in our country are readily accepting to physical mandatory interventions.
It's already a thing with reducing people's belief in God I forget the method but it's through medical intervention with some kind of injection.
Keeping people calm and compliant is a medical necessity, lest people get hurt.
Everything sounds great if worded properly.
You don't want to learn Kung-Fu?
FDA approval does not bolster confidence.
Yeah FDA approval is a cetified way to know the government will be making money or profiting off of it some way
FDA will give you a blowie if they can keep their worthless but well-paying jobs.
Why wouldn't they approve HFCS? What a truly stupid argument.
The FDA isn't there to determine if something is healthy.
HFCS is a simple plant sugar product. That's it. It's "healthy" in the sense that it isn't toxic. It's not poison. It's not hazardous. It's not harmful. It's a sugar. If I give you a tablespoon of it, are you going to die? No, you won't. You'll probably have no reaction at all.
It passes everything the FDA is there for. They aren't there to goddamn micromanage your fucking diet by saying "Canned meat has too much salt in it, BANNED." Yet that's literally what you're asking for them to do.
By what standard do you think that merits being banned? Because fat faggots chug two-liters of soda? So, we need to ban things to protect repulsive subhumans from themselves? I'd sooner round them all up and gas them for being fat retards than I would tolerate someone telling me what the fuck I can and can't eat.
Nothing in your link is incorrect but literally all it's saying is that eating tons of sugar is bad. No shit. If you banned HFCS and just put sugar in everything instead, same fucking result, it's only because sugar is expensive that it wouldn't really happen like that.
I bet you also want tobacco banned.
Funny enough I have a sugary Monster next to me and it's made with actual sugar. Hm.
Musk posted a picture of a bedside table that had a replica revolver of Deus Ex, i wonder if that is the future he sees for us, one side of humans being augmented with neuralinks and other mody modifications and the other side being against it.
Realistically no. The stupidest thing in these cyberpunk worlds is the idea that a fucking cyberware mod can be bought for a couple thousand bucks and you just pop it on.
Oh you for sure would need something in your head if you get a new limb or some shit.
Yeah, for the same reason smart phones, cars, and air travel are still too expensive for everyone except the ultra wealthy.
Right. Cybernetic legs are comparable to smartphones which is why they're everywhere.
That's the only fear you should have of this stuff.
It will make you a vegetable sometime in the next 10 years.
If they put Neuralinks into Democrats, will the boost in brain power be enough so that they are as smart as some of the primates, say a howler monkey, or will they still be sub lemur range?
When you put stupid people in a group, do they become enlightened, or do they become a dangerous mob?
If it elevates them to the intelligence of a Box Jellyfish, put your hat on it and call it progress.
I don't think Democrats are able to be helped regardless of how far technology goes.
You cannot help willful ignorance
I don't think the Demoncrats are dumb. They might act dumb or make decisions that baffles us who are not in there in the room. But I think that it's only a disguise. And again maybe some are really dumb.
If these Demoncrats are hooked up altogether, its their evil thoughts will increase and their evil ways will only increase even further.
For the leaders and overall movement, I would agree completely. It's an organized hive of evil, with some very bright demons. The bulk of their followers seem to fall into some combination of:
A) not so bright
B) too lazy/uninterested to think/learn for themselves
C) so self-focused that whatever they want is correct, and anything they dislike is false.
Did you assume one precludes the other? I didn't.
If they were winning, they wouldn't need to cheat.
You made a false assumption with nothing to base it on.
Take a gander here: https://patriots.win/p/12i48auNUG/x/c/4DzdtJJI2ya?d=50
If people want to do this, hey their choice. If they want to mandate it, then we got a problem.
Personally, I hope the technology gives some medical advances that help those who need them.
If you want to keep your job, you have to take this experimental...
It's not mandatory, but if you want to keep your job...
I know plenty of Conservatives who took the jab for "muh job"
Have some sympathy. If they didnt keep their job, how would the government take 50% of their income in taxes? Did you ever think about that ?!?!
Yeah, I was fired last year ( Nov 2021 ) for being unvaccinated as well.
Yeah, that's mandatory.
If you have to keep your job that’s your own fault , obviously needing something is ñeverage
Its up to sellers. If you cant buy food in twenty years without walking through a link scanner then its not up to anyone.
They won't have to mandate. They'll just slowly integrate it into everything so its use becomes a necessary requirement for participating in society.
Like smartphones? I'm a techie and I've figured out how to get by without them, but it's hard sometimes.
Yea, exactly. They sold cell phones for convenience and safety, now you can't even get one that isn't listening to you all the time and there are stores that don't even accept cash or card, only Apple/Google/Whatever pay on the phone.
I have an uncle that used to work in a Nuclear Power Plant. He needed a new phone, and they were telling him that they didn't sell any without a camera. He legally could not have a camera in the plant, so he told them he was canceling his phone plane instead. They found a cameraless phone real quick.
Even worse, it will be like GATTACA, where anyone who doesn’t get the implant will be biologically inferior to those who do get it, making them unable to compete from a work efficiency point of view.
If it exists, it will be mandated. The only way to prevent it is to prevent it from being invented in the first place.
Oh good grief
Yeah, I'm sure they won't be connected to the internet like our voting machines. /s
I don't see the sarcasm here. He's literally trying to install digital hardware into human brains. When Fauci tries this shit we sound the alarm. But no, this is Elon. He's like Tony Stark. Totally cool. We trust him. Now lie down...this won't hurt much.
1: Whether the person offering something seems trustworthy does matter. If my friend offers me a slice of cake, oooh, yummy cake. If my enemy does, I suspect him of poisoning it.
2: Elon believes in freedom, Fauci believes in mandates. I'm fine with medical choices I wouldn't make EXISTING, but the moment someone is trying to force it, that's a whole different story.
Are we sure about that? I hope you're right, I'm just not as easily convinced.
His actions give us many reasons to believe he does and none to believe he doesn't.
Genuinely curious, does he have a long track record of fighting for freedom, or are you just referring to his very recent action of purchasing Twitter and promoting free speech there?
None? Supporting carbon taxes, ubi, and a one world government doesn't strike me as very pro-freedom.
? Genuinely curious, does he have a long track record of fighting for freedom, or are you just referring to his very recent action of purchasing Twitter and promoting free speech there?
Until recently he wasn't really that political. But he basically set himself on fire to save our free speech.
He has never advocated a one world government that I know of. And UBI is likely to become necessary in the future as automation takes away more and more jobs. The carbon tax is...not a great idea, but it's not really a freedom issue, at least not unless you're so libertarian that you want to abolish all taxation and that's just not feasible.
That's kinda my point, it's way too early to trust he's pro-freedom. You mentioned "actions" as if he's got a track record of some sort, I'm very happy he's stepping up now, but if he's this great freedom fighter, it seems like 2022 is a little late to the party.
No he hasn't, and that hyperbole is kinda absurd. He's just as obscenely wealthy as he was a year ago. If you step outside and talk to people about Elon, most people really don't care either way. The only people that hate him now is a very small yet VERY vocal minority of rabid leftists. Don't get me wrong, it's a great sign that leftists hate him, and I fully support any actions he takes that makes those leftists hate him more. I just don't see this massive sacrifice that he's made, if anything MORE people like him than before.
WEF young global leaders are going to do WEF young global leader things.
https://medium.com/technology-hits/elon-musk-and-the-wef-dcaf4bec2084
No, that's just how they've convinced you that communism will be necessary in the future. Are you really on PDW stanning for gibs?
Taking more of my money at gun point for muh climate change is abso-fucking-lutely a freedom issue. It's almost like freedom from bullshit taxation is what this country was founded on.
Ask Alex Jones about that....
None? He’s one of the biggest proponents of carbon taxes and he also has offered full throated support of modRNA vaccines, though to his credit never mandated them
Trump pushes the vaxx too. Only time will tell how things will pan out with Musk. Could be good, could be bad. No one on here knows for a fact.
oh hes nothing like tony stark. this is just another in a long line of bullshit claims that are unreal and obviously fake to anyone who even passively looks into it.
Ffs do you think pacemakers are used to remotely give people heart attacks? Have they mandated pacemakers recently? I swear to god people with your mindset have a purity test that’s set to self-destruction.
Other companies are already doing this with great success. He's not the first.
Holy false equivalencies
Lol, it's the same reason I don't want voting machines connected to the internet. Let's say a bad actor has control over digital hardware in your body, would you rather it be your robot arm or your robot brain chip?
Uhm, what? You're under the impression neuralink won't be connected to the internet? Lol is this thread the first time you've ever heard of neuralink?
The current chips dont have nearly the specs YET to do anything more than their primary functions. Performance of those chips to even model a unique humans brain with AI and understand the inputs was already a struggle with the limitations. Adding outputs on limbs and otherwise to create potentiall even Occular OSes will be very hard. We're a ways a way from these devices being on networks
As a person in a wheelchair, you can track me and make me watch ads as dreams if I can walk 🤷♂️
❤
No thanks, I would like to remain human for the rest of my life.
But you could join the trans community and reap the rewards! lol
yeah... transhumanism needs to rebrand. The English lexicon has basically determined anything with that "trans" label is now some LGBT bullshit.
You mean gain LGBTP+ friends?
Nah, that's hard pass for me. lmao
Honestly pretty exciting - a close friend is blind and anything that gets us closer to solving issues like that is a step in the right direction. (Yknow assuming its like a pacemaker as opposed to a mind-control chip with a CCP backdoor in it.)
A lot of people here are way too emotional and dumb. Yes this tech sounds good but it will eventually be used to control thoughts and bodies. Imagine being trapped in a body watching it move on it's own according to commands from a chip in your brain.
I love how you just put yourself as an idiot like this.
The Georgia Guide stones literally argue against globalism but you never read them, did you, you crazy ass?
I'll take musk's advice on brain implants as much as trumps advice on mrna shots.
This^
Neuralink now: helps the blind to see
Neuralink in the future: execute order 66
I have one eye. I would go for a thermal imaging eye that glows like terminator
I have 2, but I'd take one of those too!
How 'bout a third eye with FLIR?
The amount of basic science that remains opaque between this achievement and current reality is incomprehensibly vast. Elon is such a huckster sometimes
Yes but also no. They've had some successes in the past with digital eyes but they're very rudimentary, essentially what they do is have a sensor that sort of stimulates parts of the brain to induce feelings upon receiving external stimulus. It's more like braille for vision. It has no application but it's "something".
Our technology is very far from replicating complex biology processes.
As far as we know, if you are born without vision, the neural pathways will not develop and you are gonna be blind or have some rudimentary planaria level of vision once they hook up electrodes.
"after years of tests on primates"
What, he didn't just test it on a few mice and then say it was ready for 4 year olds and pregnant women?
Elon, get with the times man!
Elon is creating the eventual enemy and he knows it. He does not care either.
That some people use guns to commit evil acts does not make guns bad.
I believe he said part of his goal is to get in front of the inevitable AI takeover. In other words, to give us a chance. Which is so fucking terrifying on so many levels.
We heard you the first four times, my guy.
"Can't access your bank account without your brain implant, peasant."
Well I'm certainly not putting his, or anyone's, chip in my brain.
But I also don't have a horrific disability that's destroying my quality of life. If I did, I'd have much less to lose and much more to gain and that would, obviously, change my risk calculations.
I am entirely fine (so long as there's reasonable safety oversight and informed consent) with this option existing and people making their own free medical decisions about it.
If only I could believe the uses of this tech would stop at helping the blind see and the lame to walk.
After seeing what these motherfuckers are doing with tech that isn't actually in our brains, all I can say is - fuck that.
Yeah I'm sure a million dollars worth of invasive brain surgery and months of post op therapy are totally coming to a workplace mandate near you.
You missed the point of my comment.
The cell phone sure seemed like a great invention.
The internet sure was cool for a while.
Social Media sure kept us entertained.
Look at what they've become.
Now imagine that tech is imbedded in your fucking brain and administered by the same type of people that determine whether your internet search will even present you with the information you requested.
I'm sure it will all work out great.
The greatest weapons against centralized power humanity has ever seen.
LOL wut?
They've been weaponized by centralized power against humanity.
That fact isn't even debatable.
Not getting the shot, not getting the chip, not getting anything they suggest.
That's two more years of testing than the COVID vaccine got lmao, if I was blind or couldn't walk I'd give it a whirl. Otherwise I'll wait for the lab rats to prove it works or not.
I will pass, thank you.
Why do people think this can be used to control you?
The TV doesn't implant anything in your brain, and it already controls most people. Even many in this site can't get away from their gay sports.
The influencing machine is not going to be this chip. It already exists as TV and Radio.
This is just fear porn.
The TV doesn’t have direct access to your fucking brain, and you acknowledge how much influence it already has on people. Imagine how much more damage something planted directly in your brain could do. This chip may be benign, but it’s one huge step on the path to a total mind control chip.
Thank you for a more sensible take. We don't know too much about the brain anyway at this point... no standing? I mean, so it's moot at this point in time.
Thank you, again for the non-Twitter / Reddit take on this.
Because Conspiracy Qlowns are mostly just LARPers and freaking out about fake gay shit is their hobby or something.
Because most people haven't written a single line of code or assembled anything electronic from parts.
Can't possibly see how this could go wrong
Biden and Fetterman need brain implants.
This ain't no technological breakdown, oh no, this is the road to hell.
I'll have a giant serving of HELL NO please.
I used to be extremely excited about what is called Transhumanism. I liked the idea of evolving the human species to help us survive longer, more extreme environments, even consume less calories if possible? I'm fascinated by space and the potentials! I want us to travel to other planets and stars! But I see the human condition and that we live in a fallen world where we are at war with pure demonic evil.
I'm skeptical of Elon, though he gives me great hope for the future of humanity. But he will eventually die or lose control of his inventions. With how many authoritarians rule around the globe.. brain chips scare me.. genetic manipulation scares me. The CCP can control 1.3 billion people now.. but with brain chips? Fk that
New security update available.
Vision will end unless update is installed within 24 hours.
Will it synch with my Musk Phone?
Yeah but you gotta brain-stream like 5 minutes of ads before you can download it, and agree to the EULA before it'll let you ise your brain again.
you think you have a choice?!
Hey, if people suffering from those disabilities want to chance it, more power to 'em.
As for myself...
No way he'll flip the switch 20 years from now after all the loyalists are plugged in.
You get one eye for free. Both eyes and color vision require a premium membership.
My best friend who lived in California was offered a lot of money to participate in a trial with one of these style brain “implants”. One month after chatting with him about it and telling him that I didn’t think it was a good idea, his parents received a call that he had been found dead. They were never allowed to see a body and the coroner report said he died of an overdose. He would never have used anything so he was either drugged or kidnapped or murdered. Worst part is I never got to say bye and will never see him in this world again. I miss him every day and hate all this evil in the world. He was a huge Trump supporter and a good guy.
I miss you Drew RIP
It'll start off as medical, then perhaps when Elon croaks or sells it, the technology will be massively exploited at the expense of our freedom.
I've seen this kind of shit happen before. Always ends the same way.
