The article does not mention paraplegia.
Why does it have to? All current bci's are designed for the disabled, why would this one be an exception?
So rich people can make money on the hype and sale of a new product to the masses?
you know, like literally everything?
that's where regulators step in, do you honestly believe elon musk would not be implanting healthy people with neuralinks if regulators would allow? They won't, this is tech for people whose lives are so awful that not having one is worse than the things that may go wrong, for a very, very long time.
I didn't think an old nazi with 32 felonies would be the leader of the free world, I've been surprised a few times in my life but nothing really does it anymore.
Can you say your statement could hold up against 50 years of future trends? Transhumanism? Fanatics who want it so bad that they make it law?
For that matter, who's regulating Ai right now?
