Elon Musk Wants to Put a Computer Chip in Our Brains for Transhumanism! By Brian Simpson

Elon Musk, like many people, has a light side, and an arguable dark side. The light side is the great work he has done defending free speech; not perfect but far beyond any other CEO of social media, except perhaps CEO of Telegram, Pavel Durov, who was recently arrested in France for thought crimes: https://www.theguardian.com/media/article/2024/aug/26/what-is-telegram-why-has-founder-pavel-durov-been-arrested. The dark side of Elon Musk is his transhumanism. As I have said, it is nonsense to suppose that Musk's idea of implanting computer chips in the human brain will just be for the disabled; he has revealed thatNeuralink chips will be to enhance everyone, who can at least afford to pay. Celebrating his transhumanism, Musk Xed": "If all goes well, there will be hundreds of people with Neuralinks within a few years, maybe tens of thousands within five years, millions within 10 years."

As with all these brave new world projects, that are socially untested, this one like the Covid mRNA experimental vaxxes will be dumped upon humanity, and left for future generations to sort out. The long-tern effects of neural implants, by definition, are simply not known.

"Elon Musk hopes to implant millions of Neuralink chips into people's brains over the next decade, the tech billionaire has said.

The Neuralink chief executive announced his plans following an update from the neurotech startup that revealed new capabilities of its brain-computer interface.

According to the firm, the second patient to be fitted with the device was able to use it to play first-person shooter games and design three-dimensional objects.

"If all goes well, there will be hundreds of people with Neuralinks within a few years, maybe tens of thousands within five years, millions within 10 years," Mr Musk wrote on X in response to Neuralink's blog post.

Neuralink said that the latest participant in its first ever human study of the technology was able to perform new tasks using their thoughts, such as designing 3D objects using computer-aided design (CAD) software.

The participant was able to design and print a custom mount for his Neuralink charger using the brain-computer interface, a process that was impossible with the assistive technologies he had previously used.

He was also able to play a first-person video game that typically requires two separate joysticks to control the character.

"Just running around is enjoyable because I can look side to side," he said. "I can [think about where to] look and it goes where I want it to. It's insane."

The Prime study has focussed on people with quadriplegia, though Mr Musk claims the technology will one day allow humans to merge with artificial intelligence in order to augment brain and body performance.

Potential applications include streaming music directly to the brain and improving eyesight to view new parts of the light spectrum, according to Mr Musk, however some neuroscientists claim such capabilities are decades away and come with risks of hacking and cyber attacks.

Neuralink said it now plans to add improved functionality to the brain implants used in the human trials, developing new algorithms that can recognise handwriting intent in order to enable faster text entry."
