The Neuralink Works in Humans

In this video I discuss how the neuralink could be used to restore movement and function to people suffering from disabilities and lost limbs, and the issues with implanting proprietary computers you have no real control over into your body.

It's not a fault of you.

I agree with it being used medicaly and strictly fkin overseen by medical personel- but it should not be made as a part of a deal with a corporation over which people still have little to no control over.

There is no progress without sacrifice, risk or failure. Shits gonna go south somewhere at some point, but @Tinandel has it. All we are are stepping stones to growth of reality through itself. Everything that happens happens for the elevation if it, not so much us or the other little fellas who've emerged. Sacrifice to elevate us and in turn elevate being is a fundamental aspect of being. It's all just a matter of resource allocation and arrangement. Most of it that we view bad only because of our human predisposition to do so in order to keep us safe, alive and thriving.

[@bigbluebuttonman1137]

So in case anyone’s looked at the specifics… 1. This interface basically wipes out the need to use your hands. Imagine speedrunners if they were controlling with their thoughts instead of a physical controller. If that sounds weird, yeah, but human beings tend to learn things well when they want to. I’m certain people will learn the “tricks.” 2. Because of this, we are already seeing performance increases on tasks like typing, chess, gaming, and more, just by this alone. While it’s a pointless upgrade for snapchat, for “meaningful work” whatever that is…it’s a huge boost. Imagine R&D with this. It would be efficient. Very efficient. 3. The military more than likely already has this. And if it hasn’t, it will likely be acquiring it very soon. Whether clandestinely or not. Basically, if you aren’t going to stick this thing in your brain-and I reckon the detractors aren’t going to willingly do so-the problem with this is ultimately how people are going to use this tech, and how people are going to advance it. It already boosts human performance, instead of just being “at human performance.” It’s going to get better, and things are going to get scary the more and more humanity pursue augmented intelligences instead of huge data centers that chew up energy for the same result.

There should be a law requiring these types of implants to become open source after a certain period of being on the market.

She was forced to have it removed when the company went under. Who owns and has final say over an implant? What property rights do we peasants have gor this? Second, it was revealed (i can link an article if anyone cares) that the pentagon wants to take veterans and drug them up to make them less empathetic and put them back in thw field in some sort of power armor.

[@electrified0]

Wiring up the neural pathways to control our human legs can already take years when our brains are in the ideal state. The types of robotic legs that would interface easily would be those that use basic directional input and use algorithms/ai to travel, which are a hell of a lot more error prone and expensive than an electric wheelchair.

[@protectedmethod9724]

Well said! The natural pathways are also formed from specific areas of the motor cortex. Not sure that neural link would be able to accomplish the same thing without those specialized pathways.

[@ponga_6855]

I really hate the idea of being pushed to adapt something like this because "you'll need it to compete with ai", machines should serve people, not compete with them.
