Neuralink is a neurotechnology company founded by Elon Musk with the goal of developing implantable brain–machine interfaces.
No good will come from that as illustrated in The Outer Limits episode "Stream of Consciousness".
It is currently free to watch on YouTube.
We quantify our world in order to learn. We break it down into facts, numbers, information. But how far dare we go before we destroy its mystery?
https://www.youtube.com/embed/4vbDfzrh7x4We make tools to extend our abilities, to further our reach, and fulfill our aspirations. But we must never let them define us. For if there is no difference between tool and maker, then who will be left to build the world?

I am against any sort of brain interfacing, needs strict laws so that those objecting will never have to use it. So proper laws that the state may never force this upon you, and proper anti-discrimination laws to people who refuse brain interfacing so they can still be hired at the work place.
If those things do not happen, I will still rather die before I let people interface with my brain. So I would never accept an implant and I would go out of my way to avoid involuntary implantation or other ways to do it (Trough for example digestion of conductive material).
As someone who has never even owned a 'smartphone', never bought anything online, and always uses cash, this is something that would simply be impossible for me to accept. It's just not happening.
For those who seem to think that this is no big deal, once the technology is "perfected" it will only be a matter of time before those who don't have it will be discriminated against, both by governments and private businesses. It happened with the coronavirus vax, so don't think it won't happen with this.
It is fine while the brain controls the computer. The problems start when the computer controls the brain.

Just don’t let the data transfer rate exceed 300 bps; that should slow its reaction time enough for us to stay ahead of it.
Seriously though, fudge that. I hate most modern technology. Online shopping is handy though because around here it can be nigh impossible to find basic items, probably because this part of the country seems like it was an afterthought. Also, I don’t have reliable transportation.
The current god of this world is long overdue to be dethroned. He has caused way too much damage already.
I think Elon's heart is in the right place but the globohomo will take his invention and use it to turn people they don't like into servitors.
it's just an implant. we had many of that and of similar kind. even many different brain implants. I don't know why now suddenly this is a big deal.
Just another way for the government to control us
So long as it is only being used as a solution to neurological problems like paralysis or something I have no problems with it.
It sounds like a communist conspiracy to me.
That's been done already that's how people control their prosthetic hands
it could help with language, but it might be scary if somebody hacks it right?🤔
