No way they got that shit working on humans on the first try. Someone or several people died (or were permanently damaged) from it and they’ve covered it up.

      I’d assume it’s the implantation process that kills, not whatever they’re implanting.

    Mark my words: Whatever they claim to have achieved now is already far less impressive than they tried to make it sound. Neuralink, like a lot of Elon’s companies, are just built to hype for their stock prices.

      Don’t forget terminal cancer patients. Wouldn’t be suprised if thats the #1 group being recruited. PR can spin their deaths as inevitable and blame the cancer not the nueralink tumor they implanted.

        The caveat being it’d be more cancer patients that are refusing any type of treatment. Gotta be healthy enough to have your brain cut apart but not filled with chemotherapy stuff or being nuked by radiation on the regular.
