Elon lied about the monkeys — and he shouldn’t be trusted to put his Neuralink chips in human brains.
“They are claiming they are going to put a safe device on the market, and that’s why you should invest,” Ryan Merkley at the Physicians Committee, told Wired. “And we see his lie as a way to whitewash what happened in these exploratory studies.”
Really heartbreaking reading what happened to the monkeys.
People quite rightly think of Elizabeth Holmes as a fraud for making false medical claims about what the Theranos machines could do. So why aren’t Elon’s claims at Neuralink being held to the same level of scrutiny?

That’s horrible, and also confirms what I said just the other day, who would trust him putting an implant in your brain, not me, and I already have brain damage.

Also does this remind of some news not that far back about the doomed titanic sub, similar story, ignorance of reality, shortcuts, and then failure.
Same thing, and he wants to test with people, this is just crazy, he should never be given the right to do so.

Thai caves sub proposal was crazy.

Yeah I’m regularly missing words these days, your brain should fill them in as they aren’t important words really, just link filler ones to make it sound right.
Ah well, what can I do, constantly edit everything I guess, but I get lazy.
@ajsadauskas @technology
In this thread, I talked about it.

I wouldn’t trust a sandwich made by one of his companies.
