I'd be on board with Neuralink.... if Musk wasn't behind it.
Think I"ll wait for an open source brain chip
I'm not sure I'd even trust a fully local open source one.
The issues about trusting hardware and software development tools all lead to problems here.
Yeah if a bug or a hardware failure can make me see nightmare spiders everywhere or send a signal to my pain centers, that's a permanent no.
Yeah, basically IRL plot of Snow Crash.
It is a really interesting, very scary technology that requires a solid institutional foundation to provide trust. Musk degrades trust, he doesn't build it.
His maga fanboys would ram a rusty nail into their skull if he tells them it's the hot new shit.
Sounds like he doesn't need to give them neuralink, then.
