[@RHt09]

Unfortunately, it's political. Elon has pissed off key Democrat politicians on twitter and they've sent their activist army on twitter and via entertainment and news media after him.

[@Madracer09]

Sorry to say, but he won’t be helping with vision anytime soon. He hasn’t made an innovations. The monkey controlling a cursor has been done 15-20 years ago and by humans because the sensors were external to the body. He response to the question about going deeper into the brain says it all. Currently they go 1-3mm in. Elon respond was, we just need to make the probes longer. Well brain and nerve manipulation is not that easy. First their probes are very thin which means changes in tissue density will cause changes in directions that they can’t control. Then there is navigating around nerves and blood vessels. You can’t control the direction of the probe, so to think you are going to find thousands of straight paths 30mm into your target just isn’t going to happen. Do some research and you will quickly find all he has done, has been do e to others. Why do you think the CEO resigned? Because he was copying research from a scientist that he used to work for. Elon is just an overpromising snake oil salesman. Just look at his autopilot and full self driving. He promised that over 5 years ago, and they are still years away. Look at the semi truck, three years late and it doesn’t have autopilot. Tesla is years away from making that a real choice for consumers. There is no infrastructure for its charging. Anyway, I could keep going on, maybe you have got my point by now.

We know companies have no issue breaking the law to collect personal date if they think they can get away with it, so how will this affect that? -Could some future version of Neuralink be used in law, to read a persons mind. Thoughtcrimes? -How might propaganda target people? -How might systemic racism and sexism be compounded by whatever technologies emerge? These WILL become issues down the line. Maybe not for a few decades, but itll be issues. There is positive and negative. I certainly dont trust Elon to make good decisions, or MORAL or ETHICAL decisions.

How many brains were ruined before things started working? How do you know a monkey does not have non-stop headaches? How many monkeys had malfunctioning implants causing different brain trauma? Of course these are great successes, however I miss the parts what it really costed to come up to this point.

[@alengm]

They talked a lot about that in the full video. No brains were ruined (not by neuralink at least. Idk about past research in 20th century). They looked at both how the implants affect the tissue and the behavior of monkeys. The scar tissue is minimal and harmless. After 2-3 years with the implants the monkeys seem fine too. In terms of discomfort, they designed the training and testing procedures to avoid restraints. The animals are motivated by positive reinforcement (food) and can stop the experiments at will by walking away. There is also a new video on the official Neuralink KZbin channel about animal care but I haven't watched that. Neuralink implants are much less invasive than brain implants that are already used to treat humans with specific conditions. Some cases of epilepsy are treated by drilling a 14 mm thick hole in the brain and inserting a 2 mm wire (deep brain stimulation). In comparison neuralink threads are microscopic and are inserted by a robot to avoid damaging blood vessels. Not that damaging tiny vessels would do much harm to the brain, they would just degrade the signal quality.

[@alengm]

Apparently, there are accusations from pcrm that a lot of monkeys died with unnecessary suffering because Neuralink and UC Davis didn't follow proper protocols. Even if that's not true, I guess it was naive to assume that such groundbreaking medical research will happen without sacrifices.

[@Adreno23421]

22:23 There is a huge difference between mapping the visual cortex and providing stimulus for the visual cortex to "see". Vision is not a simple 1 to 1 mapping in the cortex, different areas process for different things. There are two visual pathways, the dorsal (provides the "what") and the ventral ("what for"). Then each aspect of vision is processed in a different area of the brain, such as contour, movement, colors, stereoscopy and the list goes on and on. Saying that vision will be restored by neuralink devices is extremely far fetched. Someone that never has seen before lacks years of neuronal development (literally billions of neurons have to learn to see before we see) to have the ability to see. This is a snake oil selling.

[@robertenloe9943]

[@Adreno23421]

@@robertenloe9943 Synchron has actually had some breakthroughs, specially for physically disabled, but being able to move a mouse cursor is several orders of magnitude simpler than vision. A blind person will never see with Neuralink, the complexity is several exponential levels more complicated. 1024 channels in the Neuralink does not equal in any form billions over billions of neurons, that take years to organize themselves. Elon saying that blind will see is a zero knowledge backed idea. He can't even keep his animal subjects alive. His promise for Hyperloop is the perfect example of promising the impossible. Human driven Teslas driving at 30mph is quite different than automatous pods travelling at 155mph. How many more years does he need for Hyperloop?

As for my above example, Synchron has over 2 dozens of peer-reviewed publications and 400 patents. Where is the discovery and knowledge accumulated by Neuralink? A few patents, but no publications anywhere. The (insanely) far-fetched promises that Elon gives are disrespectful to the people that will believe in him.

I totally understand the need for humans to be smarter than computers or AI. Good job Elon.

They should use this to communicate with animals. I’m curious to know how much better a dolphin would’ve done the experiment.

What about possibly eliminating the neurons that were created due to drug dependency to help that person eliminate that drug dependency? If that's a possibility I will happily donate myself for the trial.

1 time i left my house and forgot my phone and i thought about going back but i truely thought i didnt need it .... well i kept walking and hes correct it felt like i was missing a limb it felt so strange not to have it in my hand or in my pocket.

Imagine in the near future in our lives, connecting and bonding to Mech Robots. That we control with our brains?

are humaans getting lifetime Banana Smoothie supply included with it?

[@andrewmorris4888]

I would love to be part of the trial studies or a test patient as I have a paralyzed arm and if this will make it so I can move my arm again I’d do it without a 2nd thought!! Anyone know how to get in contact with someone involved with Neuralink??!

Imagine you're just driving then an unskippable ad for NordVPN pops up in your eyes 💀

It's really amazing work for sure but the scary thing for down the road is that currently if your phone gets hacked, it's just your data. When your link gets hacked, then it'll be your brain.

[@darkdork1012]

One one hand this could solve so many medical problems. On the other hand it could be used to upload programs to people and essentially control them. Awesome lol

[@darthnihilus511]

Could you imagine the ads though 😂

[@jayzay1514]

Can't wait to have unskippable adverts in my brain

Relaxing in scaler wave can also produce these results. No implant needed.

What would happen if you got a concussion while you have one of these in? Would it dislodge? What if there is a carrington type event?

[@AXharoth]

good question , i bet the brain itself is more vulnerable to consussions

[@2niceunicorns562]

@@AXharoth it’s a fairly violent motion, a concussion. These are small wires which are barely held in place.

A rubber brain cannot emulate a true brain - the overall conductivity of the rubber brain will always be less than that of the real brain.

Mom is 87 with (non-shaky) Parkinsonism. She wants to volunteer whenever this is ready for testing on a human. Being able to move on her own more would be great. But also, she's super intelligent but has very low bandwidth due to Parkinsonism. She can no loner hold enough thoughts in her head at the same time to meaningfully think about any math concept. The same exact thing happened to Dad, who has now passed away. We wonder if Neuralink could add bandwidth to Mom's brain so that she can think about mathematics again.
