Elon Musk's next project is Neuralink


The original intention of this invention is to help people with brain damage function as normal humans again. If you have stroke, Epilepsy, adhd, and other brain injuries and mental disorder this surgically implanted chip will help you function again. He thinks it can also help people with Alzheimer's. Another feature of this technology is having internet on your head!!

Yes you can stream music, Watch videos , listen to audiobooks with just your head. You can now watch porn on public without people noticing.

If you are a normal person with no mental disorder or problem, Neuralink will increase your intelligence because your brain becomes a computer. You can also use Neuralink to re experience a memory. You can rewatch memories of yourself like they are movies.



There will also be updates to make the chip fight diseases and slow down aging.


Oh when you die, the neuralink can be used to upload your consciousness so you can be an immortal digital being.


Negatives of Neuralink? Well there will be ads in Your head! Imagine having ads on your dreams. There will be risks of getting hacked.

Medicine part of this project is good, but having Internet in my head? No thanks. I would like live in real world, not only online.

[Angie10]

Good Lord, that's a lot of promises I like how you particularly liked the bit about watching porn in plain view without anyone even knowing, @fergus1234 It all sounds fantastic but I'd have to wait and see how well it works before getting it installed in my brain.

[Netherrealmer]

Volunteers will be the only one who will have it for free though but we know the risk they have to take. Also having ads on our dreams.....

[MysticMoons]

Yeah he can dream on people will die the brain does not need a chip in it.
Next i won't because that thing is just a way to track me.
Next i would hate to have all the stupid posts from facebook in my head lol
the nice thing is now i just close facebook on my PC or tablet and poof.
None of that exists. Have thing in your brain and having to always see the posts
i feel would be hell

[sprite1950]

It would be amazing for those who had brain damage and totally worth the risks to get their life back but at this point in time there is no way I would want to experiment with this.

Dying with a chip though means your consciousness can continue living on a virtual world. I am not really a secret agent nor Japanese idol so I don't really feel bothered getting located since I don't do crimes online. It's the immortality I am more into.

They already have real life extention tech. Not sure if its done.
But I think could make you actually live a lot longer or even forever.
The secret is freezing the DNA and never letting it get old if we could do that
we would never die of old age.

I would only want to live in in a virutal world if i could be in the game Zelda.
and also marry Princess zelda and live in the castle lol
that or marry Chun Li from Street fighter lol

I wanna go full virtual because I won't worry about disease and aging anymore. Also if I feel sick of living, I can simply reboot myself back to when i was fully uploaded or voluntary delete myself.

I can still die though if the super computer where I am uploaded got bombed or flooded.

[nela13]

I think it is great for those that have brain problems and diseases but for now I will prefer to see how it works in people who really needs it, but it is in fact very promising.

I think it would be cool if your consciousness is transferred to a robot. You won't feel pain but you won't feel the warmth of a hug.

You can get something similar with Point of View (POV) niche.

I think I am contented with a Digital avatar, No need for me to go back to the real world if I can live in a world where I can fly and be in an eternal Lucid dream.

[anilmr]

I feel it will require lots of guts on part of a normal person who has not suffered any brain damage to volunteer for such projects. I would suggest, if there are any criminals on death row, to be given an opportunity to volunteer for the trials. If the trial is successful, they can be set free, if it fails - they go to the electric chair.

Oh I see. Well as for me, I would prefer to transfer my consciousness to a robot because I want to travel outside our habitable planet Earth. I don't have to worry about a deadly radiation from the sun because I am made of metal and I could explore more other planets and live indefinitely unless destroyed.

[borjboytu]

Of course I would not volunteer on that because I'm not a robot/ artificial intelligence. I'm a human being not a specimen

[Netherrealmer]

The digital world though can have simulation of space travel. Its like being a character in a sandbox videogame with open world.

[Milllyxy]

Whoa to be honest with that would be the coolest thing ever, I would be able to play any game of my choice right?? and also be able to watch any video, although the fact that I'm going to be seeing some ads does suck but still I would take it.

And hopefully, it is not hackable or datamined. It would be dangerous if a hacker find a backdoor in accessing the neuralink and probably might do something terrible.

[Netherrealmer]

Imagine if a hacker will be able to control your body, that is kind of scary.
