Neuralink said in a blog post that it was looking for people who had paralysis in all four limbs because of a spinal-cord injury or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Hey business insider you really buried the lede there. The opening makes it seem like they’re just talking about bazinga brained morons
I think if I'd lost the use of 90% of my body I'd be extra protective of the 10% that still works and not eager to let
sloppily jam some dangerous shit in thereThey're still bazinga brains
Honestly, I think being trapped in your body might be a motivating factor to try anything.
Hey now, one of those blinded ape freaks could get hit by a truck and qualify soon
We can't blow up the first three. That's not an option here
We will blow up the first 3 million like that scene in KingsmenDon't worry, the 40 year olds getting this chip will be near the end of their life spans so if they die it will be from natural causes.
Could you imagine if it worked? And it was the human instrumentality project made up of bazinga-brained redditors? What a wondrous and grotesque being would be born. I cannot imagine a more fitting ending for this accursed species

Let me grab my popcorn...
It’s so wild to me how an endeavor like this (if it even actually becomes a thing) is in the hands of the private industry instead of, idk, fucking brain surgeons
reasonably sure that brain surgeons wouldn't touch this with a ten ft pole
Ben Carson maybe
Literally the Pied Piper
Great. I fully support them. I am glad for them. I can't wait to see what will happen (many bad and annoying techbros will die and the world will be better for it, and no one has to get their hands dirty because they did it to themselves, enthusiastically). I salute their contribution to science (I do not salute their contribution to science)

aren't there like laws against this or something. It feels like he shouldn't be allowed to do this
This is going to go so well.
Based. The NFT era was terrible but was redeemed with the downfall era. I’m expecting good things from this, i.e. I hope they fail in the most grotesque way

I'm watching a Therac-25 before my eyes
And some of you have ZERO empathy what the actual fu--oh, hexbear. That explains some things.
