The first persons to use the new technology are people who have lost the use of their limbs. I see that as a positive.

There may be a minute amount of good at the genesis but it will quickly turn into something evil.

kwg …and the last ones will strapped to a gurney having it implanted against their will. You need to look a few steps into the future on these things.

Makes me think of the Clint Eastwood movie, "Firefox." He is an American who steals the world's most advanced aircraft from the USSR, and it has features such as the weapons systems that are controlled by thought---the catch being that the pilot had to think in Russian.
"Firefox" was definitely not one of the Eastwood movies that gets a lot of attention to this day, but one worth seeing. I would guess a lot of guys here never even heard of it.
We had a lot of misconceptions about the Soviets in those days. We were led to believe they had extremely sophisticated weapons. When a MIG-25 pilot defected and flew his fighter to Japan and it was given to the US, we found out that the Soviets were nowhere near as advanced technologically as we were led to believe.
That's how it was, back in the 80s.
Don't be the darkness.
America will perish while those who should be standing guard are satisfying their lusts.

If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Wait till they can wire it directly to the visual cortex. You can download and watch a movie right inside your own brain. Blue Tooth the little house hold robot to bring you a cold beer. Never get out of bed. No phone needed, it's already inside your brain. Put there at birth.

Haha bunch of scared ladies.
Musk's point is the interface between computers and humans is thumbs or fingers. This will make it more streamlined, minimizing that physical interaction, but the computer is still the computer.
Y'all typing on a computer currently. Lord save us!!
This crew would have been scared of the invention of the air conditioner with many of the same comments, I am sure...
I personally would rather have Musk looking at this stuff than, say, the .gov.
It is coming whether you like it or not. Keep up and current and effect change for the good. Or don't...

I would bet that folks w/ MS, Parkinsons etc. would find this encouraging. Others thrive on fear. Elon may be the most productive human we will see in our lifetimes and he scares the schidt out of the weak and the dumb.

It is coming whether you like it or not. Keep up and current and effect change for the good. Or don't... The computer is still the computer until it is used to directly stimulate discrete areas of the brain. Correct behavior yields a shot of endorphins to match the most powerful orgasm you ever experienced. Incorrect behavior yields excruciating pain to leave you crumpled and crying on the floor. They have been doing it to mice for over fifty years. What you apparently fail to understand is that whatever Musk invents, is the same as if it came from a .gov research facility. The feds will own it soon enough by what ever means are necessary. As will the agencies of most other nations. Governments solely exist to exert increasing control over their populations. Any tools available to exert that control will be put to use in the least benign manner possible. Trying to slow or stop such advancements does about as much good as complaining about $billions flushed down the Ukraine toilet.

I don't disagree completely on the .gov piece but there is some transparency in it's development currently which I consider a plus. As far as your assertation on the stimulation of the brain, from how I understand it, Neuralink is used to pick up outputs from the brain, not create inputs to. Big difference. Writing scared posts on the evil of tech advancement on the internet does less good. We need to understand and keep up, not decry it as black magic and run away.

In the near term the talk will be about helping people with disabilities, but in the longer run it's about getting a chip in ordinary peoples brains.
Elon's vision is to create an Artificial General Intelligence "digital "god", as he puts it, and eventually lots of cyborgs.
I just finished Joe Allen's "Dark Aeon" which goes into all this in great detail.
