Which means ads can also be streamed. Heck no.

And subliminal messages below detection range?
Can neuralink give you cravings for specific foods and beverages (Coke) without even bothering with any media?
Nuralink:
This technology’s moving too fast. They need to chew it over with Twix.
I mean, once you’ve figured out how to play music in someone’s mind, it’s only a matter of time before you figure out what parts of the brain to activate to cause cravings, impulsive behavior or puts you in a suggestible state.
“Baby shark, do da do”
Too many cooks, too many cooks.
More like … a permanent watermark in your vision whether you are awake or asleep for ‘X.com’ … or you have to pay $9.99 a month to remove it.
I can already stream music into my head, and all without invasive surgery. What an innovation.
Me too, but not everyone can actually. Still doesn’t mean this is worthwhile. Look up anauralia (the sound version of aphantasia, which is a lack of mind’s eye visually).
(sorry to anyone who discovers they have it from this comment)
Ah fr, that’s interesting. I’ve been able to construct orchestral pieces in my dreams, though I have no training in instruments. I guess it’s from memory of things Ive heard.
Yes, but imagine trains but worse! Why aren’t you excited??
Next thing you’ll tell me they’ll be selling monthly subscriptions to use those trains.
Actually it’s only available in 3 week subscription increments. Payable by a proprietary form of digital cheque
Am I the only one thinking, what if they hack it and make people’s heads explode? I’m good on all of this if it’s ever a thing. Considering how much control they have over cars remotely, you know they will have full control of this, and that’s pretty scary.
Head explode? Unlikely
Debilitating seizures? Probably quite easy once you get into the software
I doubt it’ll contain any explosives, but I wouldn’t totally dismiss the thought because musk
Sounds okay, until it’s enshittified to play ads or other messages you don’t want. Then they eventually don’t let you opt out.
The advertisements would kill me.

If you have ADHD, you don’t even need a Neuralink chip. Music is always playing in your head, whether you want it or not.
For example, seeing this post just triggered a rickroll in my head and I can’t turn it off.
The trick isn’t to turn it off, it’s to change the station.
Rah rah Rasputin.
Much appreciated.
Interesting how it’s ok to shit on technology helping disabled people as long as it’s being developed by a bad dude. If you hack a neurolink you should be charged with attempted manslaughter
I’m pretty sure everyone in this thread agrees that hacking a neuralink is bad. they’re saying it’s made by Tesla so they don’t trust it out of fear if being hacked and that that is a bad thing. not sure where you disagree with these people.

Yeah I would never put something like that in my head but it’s obvious it’s targeting disabled people first that don’t have much of a choice right now.
As long as the tech or the software doesn’t become obsolete, or the company doesn’t go bankrupt.
You know about the blind people that were able to see for a while but the company making their implants went bankrupt, leaving them blind once more, as their their implants will eventually all stop working?
Yet in 2020, Byland had to find out secondhand that the company had abandoned the technology and was on the verge of going bankrupt. While his two-implant system is still working, he doesn’t know how long that will be the case. “As long as nothing goes wrong, I’m fine,” he says. “But if something does go wrong with it, well, I’m screwed. Because there’s no way of getting it fixed.”

It’s obviously understandable to want to try something, anything, to help with a disability, but relying on private for profit companies for experimental medical devices is far from ideal.
Addendum: Also, disabled people are unfortunately often used as an excuse to push agendas. “We can’t have a bike lane there! Think about handicapped people using their car!” Or like "Tesla’s FSD will help disabled people get around No need to fund dirty dangerous public transit!! " Or again “Neuralink is going to help disabled people so they must have good intentions and obviously not plan on selling these to the general public eventuality. It’s purely for the embiggening of society!”
FSD is soooo full self driving that blind people can’t use it as it requires constant babysitting, and more importantly, a driver’s license and thr ability to drive a car… for a car that’s supposed to drive itself.
Anything coming from Musk is obviously a scam. He’s a con artist. He will say anything to convince people. He keeps promising his shit is always just on the verge of revolution but it’s mainly just empty words for hype.
Helping the disabled is probably just an afterthought for Neuralink. People are so desperate, they will try anything, and Neuralink will be the creep profiting off them.
Where the fuck are all the “Mark of the beast” people, am I living in crazy time? Fuck I’m living in crazy time…
They’re busy wearing something on their forehead to show their allegiance to a man who calls for the suffering of the least among us
They are protesting vaccines and 5G. Simple minds are not very observant of the obvious shit.
That would legitimately be horrible
Imagine being forced to listen to Rick Ashley night and day
Do exactly what we want, down to the movements of your eyes, or you will be in unimaginable pain.
I don’t see what is funny about this. It absolutely will be used for egregious human rights violations.
anyone who is stupid enough to get that almost deserves it
What if you’re forced to get it? Think, fool.
I just assumed that’s illegal, although if were talking America, I guess it makes sense
I’m talking about human rights protected by the United Nations. Your rights are covered no matter where you’re from. Why on earth would you think this is an American problem? Please be educated.
I’m just saying, america seems like a country where this is more likely to be overlooked, than other, more developed countries.
Your prejudices aside, it has nothing to do with the discussion about Neuralink or the rights of future humans who may be affected by rights violations. Your comments just seem to be making a lot of noise and complaining? Not sure where you’re trying to go with this. Sorry buddy.
I was not going anywhere, lighthearted comment, no more
I wouldn’t trust anyone to put this device in my head, but Musk is the absolute last person I would trust. Look at what he did to twitter and now imagine he has direct access to your brain.
and a hidden bomb in it in case you might be a terrorist
I do audiology research and can tell you right now, short of a cochlear implant -no we can’t. And we are easily about two decades away from anything close. And even then, a CI can’t make music sound as good as your ears. There is no ‘one’ place in the brain you can imput music into. The most dense and easiest place to input the music is in the cochlea, like a cochlear implant does. Every place up the chain then branches out to thousands of connections and makes it harder and harder. And every step higher up that you try to interface into means you are skipping the initial signal generator and lose out on all the needed fidelity. The next step above a CI is an ABI, auditory brainstem inplant. And they sound so bad, just going one stop up from the cochlea, that those users barely can understand speech and only in the best settings. And normally after about a year of auditory therapy with it. Realistically we tell people (the handfull a year who will end up with one) that they should expect to get sound awareness, and that’s it, from their ABI. And now Elon talks about wanting to go another half dozen steps up from that and magically have the fidelity to make it sound like music?? GTFO. This guy is a moron and doesn’t know what he is talking about.
Plus, it’s really not worth the problems associated with brain chips. Even the Neuralink Human Test subjects ran into the same problem we’ve faced for decades: the connecting tissue dies. It might work for a few months and then people are going to need ANOTHER brain surgery to either remove it or fix it, if it even works multiple times to begin with.
I wonder who they’re going to name the disease after when repeated Nueralink failures cause irreparable lifelong disease.
Biden, of course.
He’s got a case of the musks.
