A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

If it were anyone but Musk's company I might be excited at the prospects of this tech.
Yeah, I don’t like a guy who consistently tries to embody “move fast, break stuff” in the places I least want that to be the case.
You would? I wouldn't trust anyone to install anything in my body that doesn't preserve my life. Much less any corporations.
What about the ones that do preserve life? Like pacemakers? How long before we see all these anti consumer corporate BS panning out on those?
Good rule for life.. NEVER let someone cut you open unless it will save your life or drastically improve it. I was thinking along the lines of quadriplegics regaining autonomy than just futurisms. I could get excited about something that gives people their lives back. Would that ever come out of a company run by Musk? I highly doubt it. But if it weren't him or other tech bros there could be a chance that it could turn into something that helps people.
It's one of the things that potentially prevent the technological singularity. That's undoubtedly why the self-important Musk has an interest in it.
Not me, this will lead to malware installed in the brain.
You think popups are bad now?
Wait till you get them in your dreams.
I fully agree with you.
