You know what else killed a good amount of monkeys for their tests? Pretty much every single Class 3 medical device out there. Neuralink didn’t do anything far outside the ordinary with their tests, they just got a lot of media attention because “Elon bad”.
Medical device testing goes through animal trials before human ones. Those trials use monkeys. Those monkeys often die. The only unusual thing about Neuralink’s tests is a lot of people pretending like they suddenly give a shit.
Here’s an idea, maybe stop killing animal for medical testing?
Other companies doing the same shit isn’t any better. But with Neuralink, they said that no monkey were killed during their trials, which is false. So it makes it even worst.
… First off, the guy was a paraplegic before the implant. This isn’t a sudden or new thing to happen.
Secondly, you’re literally asking for a final version of something without any sort of human testing involved. Can you name a single medical device, ever, which has had exactly 1 version, no updates, and went through 0 human trials before completion?
This guy was never going to be out and about on his daily walk through the middle of the street using his v0.001 neuralink implant. And if you honestly thought that was ever on the table, you have absolutely no idea what is going on.

That’s what the animal trials were supposed to be for. You know what happened to them? They died. They didn’t even wait for the chip to be successful in apes before putting it in a human. If you don’t understand why that’s fucked up, I can’t help you.
WHAT THE FUCK
I mean it’s not your brain dude, why do you care?
Because it will encroach into everything if we let it be.
There’s always a dumdum like you saying “it doesn’t affect you, so why do you care?”.
Because the company implanting the chip killed a good amount of monkeys for their tests. They’re an unethical company.
Because Elon Musk is a fucking piece of shit and he is clearly disregarding the laws if it makes him money.
Because private, for-profit companies cannot be trusted to not fuck over everyone if it makes them a cent more.

Because it kills everything you put it in? I don’t know how to tell you that you’re supposed to care about other people.
Apart from the only other human it’s been put in, who from all reporting has had no ill side effects.
You haven’t been keeping up with the news have you? The chip malfunctioned, and Elon knew it was going to.
This is extremely old news. The dude is alive, and has regained much of the functionality he lost in the chip with a firmware update.
Put your rage boner away.

Put.
Your hate boner.
Away.
Your ignorance of the subject is insane. You don’t even have the first clue as to who is involved in the tests or what it’s meant to accomplish.
