Elon Musk “Confident” Brain Chip Company Neuralink Can Begin Human Trials In Six Months

Via ZeroHedge

At a live-streamed event on Wednesday evening, Elon Musk announced that Neuralink Corp’s coin-sized brain chip could be implanted in human heads for clinical trials within the next six months.

“We want to be extremely careful and certain that it will work well before putting a device into a human, but we’ve submitted, I think, most of our paperwork to the FDA, and probably in about six months, we should be able to upload Neuralink in a human,” Musk said during the event at the company’s headquarters in Fremont, California.

Neuralink’s brain-computer interface (BCI) is a small chip implanted in a human’s head to allow a person suffering from a debilitating condition, such as the aftereffects of a stroke or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), to communicate with their thoughts.

Previously, Musk had promised human trials would begin in 2020, then 2022, and now the target appears sometime in the first half of 2023. He also revealed two other BCIs that could one day be attached to the spinal cord and restore movement in someone with paralysis.

 “As miraculous as that may sound, we are confident that it is possible to restore full-body functionality to someone who has a severed spinal cord,” the billionaire co-founder said. 

One of the presentation’s highlights was a video of a monkey “telepathically typing” on a screen with a BCI implant.

“To be clear, he’s not actually using a keyboard … He’s moving the cursor with his mind to the highlighted key. Now technically, he can’t actually spell. So I don’t wanna oversell this thing, because that’s the next version.”

BCI technology has been studied in academia for decades. Last year, European research announced a person who has ALS had regained his ability to communicate after a brain chip was installed in his head. And Brown University recently said, “using a brain-computer interface, a clinical trial participant was able to create text on a computer at a rate of 90 characters per minute just by thinking about the movements involved in writing by hand.”

Musk’s entry into the space in 2016 has spurred increased investments via venture capitalists into startups pushing this cyborg technology forward.

Musk closed down Twitter’s office until (at least) Monday. The lib media (NPR specifically) was trying to spin it as though Twitter may go out of business. I think Musk just needed to freeze these fuckers out so they couldn’t pull any bullshit – steal programming, maliciously destroy things, etc. Once he figures out who’s believably pro free speech (relatively), he’ll reopen.

Baphomet costume aside, I think his instincts are pro free speech, but the US government is threatening his interests. I think speech will be freer now that he owns it, but only within the limits allowed by the Deep State. I don’t have a twitter account and would never pay for one.

The antiChrist wears purple

Revelation 17:4
“And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:”

Excerpt: The following day at the high mass of November 25th 1894, Cardinal Giuseppe Melchiorre Sarto, who later became Pope Pius the 10th, presented an address at the high mass of St Mark’s to the fanfare of the crowds. In that famous address he said the following which has been quoted for the past one hundred plus years:

“The Pope is not simply the representative of Jesus Christ. On the contrary, he is Jesus Christ Himself, under the veil of the flesh, and who by means of a being common to humanity continues His ministry amongst men … Does the Pope speak? It is Jesus Christ Who is speaking. Does he teach? It is Jesus Christ Who teaches. Does he confer grace or pronounce an anathema? It is Jesus Christ Himself Who is pronouncing the anathema and conferring the grace. Hence consequently, when one speaks of the Pope, it is not necessary to examine, but to obey”

These were great words no doubt from the little horn of Daniel 7:25 and the Man of Sin from 2 Thessalonians 2. The following year in January 1895, Evangelical Christendom published a protest about the quote which created a stir in the Christian world. (1)

Upon seeing the discussion, Publications of the Catholic Truth Society (2) responded by publishing a question and answer response with Pope Pius the 10th who responded by referencing a different sermon and wording from February 20th 1895 which was the anniversary for the election of the Pope. Any novice can see the problem, by referencing a sermon well after Evangelical Christendom had published their concerns, he clearly is avoiding the sermon in question and comes across as evasive.

Some people won’t read the article the link.

In the lawsuit, the committee alleges that staff at the university “removed pieces of the skulls of rhesus macaque monkeys and inserted electrodes into the animals’ brains.”

The lawsuit alleges that monkeys were not provided with adequate veterinary care and that an “unapproved substance” known as BioGlue “killed monkeys by destroying portions of their brains.”

But watch the FDA approve this. No thanks.

I used to have this idea, like most Americans, the tech is neutral- can be used for good or bad. As a Christian, especially, that is silly.
They always go bad especially if has weaponization capability, which almost everything has if can be used psychologically. It’s not the object, it’s people.

This tech is scary but take the milking machine. What a great invention! But it led to what HSF is talking about. Better agricultural practices on a grand scale may be doable and the milking machine would still be useful. It’s not a great weapon. Other things are, like perhaps LED lights.

It’s a feature not a bug.
