They're gonna test it on concentration camp internees.

I hate how entirely possible that scenario is
Same.
They will be working on courts to make brain chip implants conditions of parole, if not conditions of bail.
Our courts are fascist enough, hate the undesirables enough, and are as cravenly devoted to the powerful of society to enthusiastically do it too. Prosecutors and judges, we have all the wrong people in charge.
Don’t Let Elon Musk Implant a Device in Your Skull
He can't be trusted
Thank you, Captain Obvious.
That said, I can understand the draw for people who have disabilities who would benefit from these tools. It could be life changing.
It's sad that society seems to rely on insane billionaires to move science forward over properly funded state healthcare and research.
The immediate result of this overdrive was roughly 1,500 dead animals, either killed directly by Neuralink’s experiments or euthanized afterward.
I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but "move fast and break things" is being taken very literally in Musk's companies, even when those things are living things.
We'd heard of the bypassing regulations too, like around pollution and planning when building AI server farms, and that's fully present here.

But we're talking about AI here. And AI simply isn't there yet, It should stay within the constraints of IT laboratories for at least another 10 years. But...
Musk is no longer content with healing the sick and injured. (edit: or helping the disabled)
Suddenly, we’re talking about a third-party brain implant with access to all of your thoughts and imagination.
We think that it's actually possible to (...) speak to the latest AI model, or LLM models, at the speed of thought
What Seo is describing here is a form of ChatGPT (or more accurately Grok, Musk’s anti-woke version) implanted directly in your brain. It’s hard to imagine a more pointless technology
Are you kidding? It's super useful. How else will you correct unvoiced thoughts and punish those who think differently
There is an epidemic of wrongthink going around that's true.

Streaming music directly into the brain sounds like a recipe for migraines. Unfamiliar auditory signals are exhausting at least for the deaf/hard of hearing
It would be interesting to experience once but I think it would be uncomfortable or even disorienting in the long run. Like tinnitus but with a beat.

I'd say sinister technology very soon. All together now!
Do Not Make The Torment Nexus.
What happened to the dude that already has one? He get euthanized too?
Duh
Always good advice. No matter the person or group really. Just don't let anyone implant a device in your skull and you will rarely if ever make a bad decision in this regard.
