• It’s not the tech itself that worries me. It’s who in this case is supplying it along with the fact the previous patient had 85% of the functionality just stop and they haven’t done a damn thing to address that before they want to try it on another patient.

    There are other companies working on the same or similar tech that are far less fucked up.

      Look we all hate Elon and how neuralink is developing their tech that’s not in question here.

      People are taking issue with your referring to desperate people with very very poor quality of life due to injuries or medical conditions as “brain dead”

      They aren’t “brain dead”, dumb or stupid, they are reaching for what looks like the only potential light in their life. A life that is probably impossibly difficult for any of us typically healthy people to imagine.
