After what happened to all those monkeys I still can’t believe he got permission to move to human trials. You’d have to be stupid or insane to volunteer for this.
Musk has perfected the self selection of morons, I’m sure they’ll have plenty of test subjects to toy with
Anyone getting this shit will die just like every single fucking monkey test subject. If they don’t die, their suffering will be unbearable

Go on Elon, show us how it’s done and take the first one
Wow, thank you for linking that article, I hadn’t read it yet. That’s absolutely horrible, and it doesn’t surprise me that Elon has orchestrated something so cruel in the name of progress.

UC Davis veterinary records cited by the Physicians Committee—which WIRED also obtained through a subsequent California public records request—chronicle a battery of complications that developed following procedures involving electrodes being surgically implanted into monkeys’ brains. The complications include bloody diarrhea, partial paralysis, and cerebral edema, a condition colloquially known as “brain swelling.”
Additional veterinary reports show the condition of a female monkey called “Animal 15” during the months leading up to her death in March 2019. Days after her implant surgery, she began to press her head against the floor for no apparent reason; a symptom of pain or infection, the records say. Staff observed that though she was uncomfortable, picking and pulling at her implant until it bled, she would often lie at the foot of her cage and spend time holding hands with her roommate.
Yeah. I think I’ll pass.
This really might be the one that gets him. It’s one thing when self driving doesn’t quite work right or when that tunnel project gets abandoned. If they install these things and people get seriously hurt (I know cars can hurt people) it’s going to be a shit storm.
What is actually known about Musk’s drug use? I heard he was on Ambien and he obviously smokes weed now and again, what else is our little genius hopped up on?
Edit: I have zero evidence for this but I can’t see how Adderall or something similar is not involved. He’s Aspie so its a little tricky to seperate that out but I dont know how anyone that “productive”/active isnt on something Xtra
Edit: by heard
I meant Musk said it, whilst smoking on JRE
He doesn’t care. His followers will defend him and tell you that he is god send and he is the smartest guy of mankind.
Rather appropriately, allowing Elon Musk’s crew to operate on your brain is proof that you do indeed need brain surgery.
