Death cult. No joke here, no hyperbole. Death cult.
EDIT: To me, starting with people with paralysis and taking advantage of their desperation to do underegulated shit that already caused untold suffering and death to primate subjects is still death cult shit in the way it's tricking people into false hope and sloppy pseudoscientific "experiments" for the sake of the fever dreams of the cult leader.
Neuralink said in a blog post that it was looking for people who had paralysis in all four limbs because of a spinal-cord injury or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Hey business insider you really buried the lede there. The opening makes it seem like they’re just talking about bazinga brained morons
I think if I'd lost the use of 90% of my body I'd be extra protective of the 10% that still works and not eager to let 
sloppily jam some dangerous shit in there
They're still bazinga brains
Honestly, I think being trapped in your body might be a motivating factor to try anything.
Hey now, one of those blinded ape freaks could get hit by a truck and qualify soon
Don't worry, the 40 year olds getting this chip will be near the end of their life spans so if they die it will be from natural causes.
Could you imagine if it worked? And it was the human instrumentality project made up of bazinga-brained redditors? What a wondrous and grotesque being would be born. I cannot imagine a more fitting ending for this accursed species
It all ends, not with a bang, or a whimper, but a le epic fart sound 
We can't blow up the first three. That's not an option here
We will blow up the first 3 million like that scene in Kingsmen
Heard of nonfree software? How about nonfree people?
Then company goes under or deems your implant non-profitable and stops supporting it and now your brain implant software doesn't work. That's already a thing with other medical devices.
Is "Shivon Zilis" a normal name somewhere? I can't tell if my brain is rotting
you made me look her up and wtf did i just read
Elon Musk and Neuralink manager Shivon Zilis decided to have children together after the tech mogul spoke to her about his population doomsday fears
Musks weird breeding fetish is so disgusting
after the tech mogul spoke to her about his population doomsday fears
Planetwide catastrophe imminent, therefore must individually breed with lumpy apartheid prince 
Is this a eugenics thing? Like I'm sure some of his supporters actually believe his genes are important for humanity and need to be passed on. I wouldn't be surprised if more than a few of his fans would think a crisis killing millions of people would be great because we could repopulate with billionaire DNA, who obviously have the -b e s t- genes.
That was the implied part of the take of that one extremely 
youtube infographic series (Kurzgesagt I think) that used to do pop science interest videos but decided to bootlick for Bill Gates and started doing "billionaires ruling over us are cool and good actually" takes and the capstone of that propaganda was the climate collapse video that announced that it would be "a victory for humans" if even 1% of the world population survived because that would magically mean the world is somehow inhabitable again (instead of continuing whatever death spiral killed 99% of people) and that the elect 1% would reach the stars and otherwise attain science victory win conditions like in the 4x treats. 
How about "Chiveon Zilis"
Whenever I read about this shit I always have to think about Adam from Doctor Who.
I have to struggle to not feel liberal emotions about the worst reddit brained people on earth linking up to have their brains literally melted for a change.
Let me grab my popcorn...
Anyone else notice that the thumbnail looks exactly like 
?
First thing I thought of
It’s so wild to me how an endeavor like this (if it even actually becomes a thing) is in the hands of the private industry instead of, idk, fucking brain surgeons
reasonably sure that brain surgeons wouldn't touch this with a ten ft pole
Ben Carson maybe
Literally the Pied Piper
aren't there like laws against this or something. It feels like he shouldn't be allowed to do this
Great. I fully support them. I am glad for them. I can't wait to see what will happen (many bad and annoying techbros will die and the world will be better for it, and no one has to get their hands dirty because they did it to themselves, enthusiastically). I salute their contribution to science (I do not salute their contribution to science)
I think a lot of truly desperate paralyzed people will be sold a false hope here and will get drawn in that were otherwise not bazinga cultists.
This is going to go so well.
Based. The NFT era was terrible but was redeemed with the downfall era. I’m expecting good things from this, i.e. I hope they fail in the most grotesque way
A lot of desperate paralyzed people that otherwise would not be bazinga cultists are likely to suffer and die from these Wish.com Mengele "experiments" that lack scientific rigor or regulatory protections.
I'm watching a Therac-25 before my eyes
And some of you have ZERO empathy what the actual fu--oh, hexbear. That explains some things.
