Stupid article as it implies that doctors are concerned for a specific reason related to the subject’s health but it’s just background about this shitty experiment and how it can be dangerous. Regardless, I can’t believe someone volunteered for this and am unfortunately expecting documented issues in the future.
Remember how they couldn't get the cyber truck to not rust? Or the bullet proof windows to work? Or how the milage for most Tesla's was impossible, so people thought their cars were broken, and instead of either confessing or fixing the mileage they created an elaborate scheme to cancel appointment so people couldn't get their batteries looked at? These are the people you trusted to put a chip in your brain...
I'm not using it, might as well sacrifice for the good of the many
I think it would be a lot more reasonable to expect undocumented issues. They have a lot to lose and it's controlled by a billionaire. As if they're not going to try to cover it up.
They will try to cover it up for sure. IMO Either it will “silently end” after myriad health issues or there will be big public exposures.
I doubt you'll hear any docs about failures. I think that's what this article is about? I.e. a lack of transparency?
i'd do it for money. Not much to fuck up with my brain
If my option was never move again and this would let me control a computer then I wouldn't care about the risk
The results are in. You now feel as if you are constantly moving. You aren't, but it sure feels that way. Forever.
I'm sure the guy who had a pig heart transplant thought similar. He died less than a year after.
