| Some monkeys not doing well with Neurolink implants, human subjects still needed |
| 2023-09-25 |
| [NEOSCOPE] Earlier this month, Elon Musk claimed on X-formerly-Twitter that the monkeys who died during Neuralink trials were "terminal" cases "close to death already," making it clear that none of them perished as a result of the biotech company's brain implants. Documents viewed as part of a new investigation by Wired, however, as well as testimony from a former employee, contradict Musk's claims entirely — and the details are as upsetting as they are damning, adding to a mounting case against the safety of Neuralink's devices. And the timing couldn't be more exigent either, with Neuralink announcing on Wednesday that it's recruiting subjects for human trials. |

| #4 Ya know, I think I saw this movie... Be sure and hook the neuralink subjects to one of the DoD's nuclear powered AI's. Maybe throw in one of the BostonDynamics robot dogs for the total entertainment package. |

| #3 the monkeys who died during Neuralink trials were "terminal" cases "close to death already," So they died of Covid not the jab? Snark O'The Day |

| #1 Our schools (including in Israel) produce highly-credentialed morons. Maybe, just maybe, we should try to figure out what went wrong? |
