. In a video demonstration, one of them helped “type” the phrase ‘welcome to show and tell’ using their implant by focusing on highlighted words and letters. Another video showed how the monkeys were trained to charge the devices by sitting under a wireless charger.Later in the presentation, Neuralink researchers also showed off a pig on a treadmill, which they said was helping them study how to address mobility issues in people in the future.
In about 15 minutes, 64 of these “threads” can be implanted into the brain using a robotic system, said DJ Seo, the vice president of Implant and co-founder of Neuralink, during the presentation — while using a mannequin to show how the process might work.The reason for the robot surgeons comes down to just how tiny those threads are.
“I am five years away from putting a man on Mars.” — Elon Musk, 2009
neuralink implant in human subject
May he be the first to have it installed
Maybe it's me but somehow Rick Sanchez implanting himself with a chip in his brain does not give me more confidence in this tech. Not because of the character's abilities in the cartoon, but because a lot of episodes end up having odd side effects.
elonmusk is the Rick of our universe.
So 12 years?
Try it on the weird nerds first.
So based on 99% of Musk’s “x will happen by 20xx” pronouncements, we can expect it in about a decade, or more likely next century.
Elmo knows Rick is the bad guy, right?
So he's about 12 months away from a murder trial
Musk is getting Elizabeth Holmes to speed up progress on this brain chip.
that’s great!
I seen how this story turns out
Too bad no one can investigate these claims and see if they’re valid. We just have to quote him and go with that.
Only a few thousand more monkeys to go
What’s the difference between neurolink and v2k?maybe an uncomfortable question for Some,but for me a rational one.
Playing with fire?😃
Twitter—starlink—neuralink—- robots?…. can someone help me connect the dots? I’m trying to construct a conspiracy theory, all help appreciated, thnx
Wholly sick, I'm not letting big shill pennypinchers put flyers for their goyslop straight into my mind
is this happening before or after he releases his $20,000 humanoid robot
What if Elon isn't actually a real-life Tony Stark but is actually a budding Thanos?
Doubt
If you agree to this you will never enter the kingdom of heaven
driving cars next year man on mars in ten years
You can just say that he's lying. Or maybe counter balance it with the reports that it has been killing lab test animals at an alarming rate.
6 ! they couldn't have this news for 7 or 5 months, it has to be 6(66)
Remember when he was putting a man on the moon in 10 years….10 years ago?
So 10 years, got it
Is that Rick from Rick and Morty ?
we’re fucked
6 months starting from late 2022 means like 1 y starting from 2024 then again 6 months from 2025 and real human trial in 2026 right?
We have heard this before
And now watch how all the antivaxxers will line up to literally get a microchip in their brain 🤦♂️
5 years ago Tesla was 6 months away from 100% self driving autonomy. Elon struggles with the truth and it’s a quirk that makes him so lovable
Irresponsible journalism is dangerous and unethical
Way to whitewash it. 'Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine is encouraging the public to visit a new website—— to learn the grisly details of Musk’s monkey experiments.'
This is scary as well as exciting together!
So 6-7 years?
Recruitment event. He doesn’t have shit to show for. I can bet that he doesn’t even have a direction to shoot for. Just randomly throw out si-fi fiction he came up while snorting Diet Coke 2 am in the morning.
And I am lifetime away to ever let it touch my body
🤣
Let's test it on him first, please ☠️
Great! Why pay $250,000 and wait for the Tesla Roadster that will never come when you can get a “free” brain implant and drive the same car in ur sleep using just imagination.
get well soon
Awesome
Y'know I need a similar device to extricate myself but I don't want that anywhere near my host's brain. If she gets lobotomized we're all going down with her...
Why report if you can't verify? He keeps lying and getting press to publish it, boosting his profile.
And so fringe becomes real jjabrams
They will be implemented in the Mars colony he also already have first
Reporting on this uncritically, even with scare quotes in the lede, is journalistic malpractice. Remembering the last time they tried in-vivo implants, they tortured & killed at least a dozen test subjects.
I can't wait to vomit and eat my own fingers like those monkeys they experimented on. Sounds like fun
at a certain point it's irresponsible journalism to report on this guy's claims about product timelines as if they're credible. we passed that point years ago
That's closer than FSD was close to full autonomy in 2017.
Does it come with a free 'coast-to-coast Hyperloop'?
Mate, it's like treated effluent. You've got to take the first drink.
Kinda like his Tesla truck that we have yet to see in production from 2yrs ago. Not to rag on Elon but he should QUIT making commitments that never happen!
You first
So 3 yrs?
Test monkeys ate their own fingers and died but please logic fans, sign up.
LMFAO, I think the monkeys would disagree🥸
RIP to whoever that poor soul is
Can I dump my keyboard, mouse and monitor soon?
where is this beast at?
Was it worth 3000 dead monkeys?
Where's those 'Bill Gates wants to chip me!' simps? 🧐
why is there a Rick
