Elon's Neuralink - High Precision Neural Interface
[Hot Air] There some big news allegedly coming out this Friday from Elon Musk. This time, however, it’s nothing to do with his SpaceX rocket program, his Tesla electric cars or even the Boring Company, which is trying to create train tunnels across the country. This is yet another of Musk’s many brainchildren, with a significant emphasis on the "brain" part. Elon has an outfit named Neuralink which is hoping to perfect the technology required to have a functional interface between machines and the human brain up and running in the very near future. And this week he’s promised a demonstration that will show it’s not just some pie-in-the-sky dream. He’s going to show neurons firing in a human brain in realtime.

#1 He’s going to show neurons firing in a human brain in realtime.

I'd be a no-go for surgery. But if it were a Tri-Care covered, coffee or BBQ sauce additive, I'd be willing to give it a go. Smallish doses of course, crawl-walk-run.
