Medical applications =/= rockets and cars. Silicon Valley methods don't work on those very well.

Neuralink is nothing special; it’s basically the same technology as that Star Wars helmet that you could use to levitate a ball with “the force.” EEG + integrated circuit.

Good for Musk.
Fuck medfags.
These idiots get paid obscene amounts of money, and are afforded excessive respect, and accomplish almost nothing.
If we don't let the engineers take over, it will be 2080, and we'll still be reading articles about stem cell medical breakthroughs just another 10-20 years away.

American elites apparently thought it was ok given that they were given amnesty and went on to live cushy lives.

American elites are hardly the standard one should hold themselves to morally. If I were in charge, they would have been handed over to the Chinese government to do as they wish (the Israelis should have gotten to do whatever they wanted to the Nazi medical scientists too),
