Brain-reading devices raise ethical dilemmas — researchers propose UNESCO protections
@AnnaAnthro
SO LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT:
A man who owes much of his vast fortune to government contracts paying his private companies (#SpaceX, #Tesla, #Starlink, #Neurolink, even X now) thinks the PRIVATE company known as #Amtrak needs to be "privatized" so that it is forced to compete for its gov't contracts?
Do I have that right?

Who controls these cyborg implants?
Who 'owns' them?
If the company which operates them goes bust, what then?
Our radical cyborg future ain't going to happen with Capitalism, or rather you wouldn't want it to happen with Capitalism.
Case in point: the horror of Elon Musk's 'Neurolink'

@CindyWeinstein We need to delete his grants for #SpaceX #Neurolink and #Starlink
"‘This is obviously not about the #money,’ #Tesla’s board chair writes — presumedly with a straight face."
#Elon #Musk could #leave Tesla if he doesn't get his $56 #billion #pay.
But it's not about the money! Especially since he keeps sending Tesla workers/supplies to his other businesses like #Twitter and #NeuroLink

Even een belangrijk item in de herhaling: soms zal science fiction met goede reden science fiction blijven. @marleenstikker legt het naar aanleiding van Musks neurolink nog maar een keertje uit.
(met die zelfrijdende auto als beste voorbeeld)

Kann #elonmusk künftig dann auch Gedanken/Computermaus der #neurolink-Nutzenden steuern? Z.B. via Zustimmungserteilung in den nl-AGB: 'Wenn du auf x unterwegs bist erlaubst du x automatisch 3 Anzeigen anzuklicken. Dann erhältst du [benefit].'

Between Tesla FSD killing customers and neurolink chip implants killing monkeys, Elon definitely gives off Lord Farquad vibes
People really should pay attention to what Elon produces but won’t use.
Now that I think about it, I’ve only seen Elon Musk drive his cars.
He has someone else get the first chip implanted in their brain (neurolink)
He hasn’t been to space on his own rockets despite owning a space company that will supposedly get his ass to Mars (spaceX)
At least Captain Nemo went down with his ship to see the Titanic.. and subsequently stayed down there, but I digress
Question. To show us his product is:
1. Desirable
2. Safe
Shouldn't Musk have been the first human recipient?
Any reason I can think of for Musk to NOT choose to be the first recipient reflects very poorly on Musk.
What I want to know is what NUTTER decided to have a chip implanted in the first place, and why?? Too late to ask them now. They'll probably blue screen. #Neurolink
Elon Musk says Neuralink has implanted first brain chip in a human;
Billionaire’s startup will study functionality of interface, which it says lets those with paralysis control devices with their thoughts

Do I think Apartheid Clyde is capable of torturing Disabled people to fulfil his comic book dreams of being Tony Stark?
Yes, yes I do.
He'll fuck up this technology for the people taking their time, being ethical and doing it properly because he's one of those "move fast and break things" twats.
The Cringemaster strikes again.
If this isn't bullshit then somebody is other than Apartheid Clyde is a fucking idiot.

Musk has never seen an ethics guideline he didn’t gut: AUTOPSY FOUND THAT NEURALINK
IMPLANT
"RUPTURED"
MONKEY'S BRAIN AND NEURALINK REALLY DOESN'T WANT
YOU TO SEE THE PHOTOS. https://futurism.com/neoscope/neuralink-implant-ruptured-monkeys-brain #musk #neurolink #politics #science #ethics
I'm alright with Elon #Musk's company #neurolink testing on humans.
As long as the first human is Elon.
