On Tuesday, Elon Musk's Neuralink company announced it had implanted the first patient with its brain chip technology. The work builds on decades of research from academic labs and other companies, connecting human brains to computers to address human diseases and disabilities.

The Neuralink device records activity from electrodes placed next to individual brain cells making it possible to read out the person's intended movements.

The company has said it is looking for volunteers to participate who have limited function in all four limbs due to ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis) or have had a spinal cord injury at least a year ago from which they have not significantly recovered. Volunteers must be willing to allow the company's R1 Robot to surgically place an implant in a region of their brain that controls their body's intended movement. They must also agree to participate in six years of training and follow-up sessions.

Useful technology for cripples. No way in hell would I want a chip in my brain though.

praying for an asteroid ASAP

naw this technology won't be abused guise he he

i wonder if this tech will allow paralyzed people to walk again

Omega Point within your lifetime, boys.

Read Pierre de Chardin and reconcile with your Creator. It won’t be long.

My mom died a few years ago from ALS. Would be cool if this helped stop that, but getting one just because you think it’s cool at this stage is 0 IQ.

prophecy fulfilled in real time and many people will still deny it srs

Cliffs pls

The posited point at the end of time where all conscious life connects so completely it unifies and “ascends” to a higher dimension or returns back to God.

Wikipedia:

The Omega Point is a theorized future event in which the entirety of the universe spirals toward a final point of unification. The term was invented by the French Jesuit Catholic priest Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881–1955).[1] Teilhard argued that the Omega Point resembles the Christian Logos, namely Christ, who draws all things into himself, who in the words of the Nicene Creed, is "God from God", "Light from Light", "True God from True God", and "through him all things were made".[2] In the Book of Revelation, Christ describes himself thrice as "the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end". Several decades after Teilhard's death, the idea of the Omega Point was expanded upon in the writings of John David Garcia (1971), Paolo Soleri (1981), Frank Tipler (1994), and David Deutsch (1997).[3][4][5]

Going to be stuck at a little better status than those wrist implants substituting as key fobs for decades. It was just a few years ago people thought fully self driving cars would be taking over the roads by now, but those are still many years away, and the human brain is far more complex than the mostly unconscious task of driving. I read articles about people planning to buy fleets of fully self driving Teslas as taxis and how using such vehicles was going to be cheaper than owning your own car.

Driveways and garages in new homes would become a thing of the past. Parking garages in downtowns would need to be torn down or refurbished into apartments. We're supposed to be most of the way there already, just like most major cities on the US coastline were going to be underwater a decade, per Al Gore. Or how the UK was supposed to have "Siberian climate" years ago, per The Pentagon in 2005. How's all the nonsense panned out?

Shut the fuk up.

Cool, gunna be like gundam wing where someone can control my body.
