Commodification of everything you think off Past/Present/Future.
Behold the Rise of the Cybermen! Elon Musk is the John Lumic of our world. Humanity will be upgraded! https://piped.video/watch?v=TQs3gVobcfg
Probably very safe. Though the tech is interesting, that the company is owned by such a person does not instill confidence about its future uses.
Tell that to all the dead monkeys. It wasn’t that long ago that they were getting slammed for animal rights violations for having a very high number of animal fatalities in their testing compared to similar research groups.
There was even a big thread about it on Reddit where another researcher said that if there were that many deaths in any other project, it would be considered a failure and cancelled.
And now they’re upgrading to humans.
I'd never opt for it unless i couldnt function without it, and I sure don't wanna live forever in a computer, or at all. The potential for abuse is astronomical. Let's hope we have fought for a massive shift in consciousness before this comes to full fruition, right?
“Free calls, free internet, for everyone, forever.”
I'm picturing that one day people will need guides on how to "jailbreak" their own brains, because they want the be able to live without the constant advertising and recording. Their brains no longer belong to them but the companies
Given musk (with no cave diving experience) called the expert cave diver a pedo when he was told the sub was useless, threw an obviously annoying sign on the roof, started a stupid tunnelling company which would have taken 3 mins of market research to realise won't work in reality.. I hate to think what crap ideas he contributed to the researchers.
The only people who should even remotely consider it, are people who are terminal and who get paid millions by musk
I'm amused how Neuralink was a highly regarded breakthrough celebrated by the likes of Reddit/Lemmy folks, but once Musk was revealed as an idiot, Neuralink is suddenly "lobotomizing".
I haven't seen anyone excited about neuralink, ever. Maybe it helps that I don't read Twitter though.
I know the meme is making fun of these people, but the “expectation” makes it look like the only thing they expect to get out of it is feeling like they’re cool for having it
I'm in the awkward position of being genuinely excited by this type of technology while desperately wishing literally anyone but Elon Musk was pushing them.
