I like the concept of Neuralink, I really do, but drilling a hole into your skull and then implanting a chip in your brain is going to result in scarring and loss of brain matter. This is a big reason Hodak left the company.

If you ask me, Neuralink should follow what Marry Lou Jepsen at Openwater is doing, make a BCI that doesn’t require elective brain surgery by using infrared light to communicate with neurons. I don’t want to do anything like this until nanotech gets here.

First human trial of nanobots was approved this week. The case of Nanobots vs. Cancer is being ruled in these very hours. Future, freedom and fun for all!

Yeah, but I’m talking about hardnano. That’s still a ways away (or at least post AGI).

Elon is only a single piece of the puzzle. You don’t dismiss a whole team because you have issues with one individual.

Fair point. I just don’t like the control/sway he has. Almost like Facebook becoming Meta. I don’t want them to become the face of the Metaverse with Zuckerberg’s greed running things

He's prioritizing a very well aligned incentive structure. Even if just in principle by talking about it. Meta guarantees a business model that works against your interests as a consumer.

Looking forward to it. I remember something about them doing their first human trials by the end of this year, so I wonder if they’ll talk about that during the event.
