Musk is exploring — among other things — neuroelectronic means of enabling people with neural damage to regain lost abilities; like feeding themselves, and walking.

He’s also exploring means of more rapidly sending messages via devices; like maybe instead of thumbing a tiny keyboard, or having to talk aloud, you could think, though I believe that may be nearly impossible to achieve.

The motivator, here, is to enable humans to survive the possible rise of a self-aware AI. At the speeds microchips operate, it might not be capable of identifying that such slow-paced life forms as humans even exist alongside it.

Still, in stark contrast to your hand-wringing, Musk isn’t going to be out campaigning Fauci-like to mandate at the point of Federal Government that everyone get one of whatever it is he creates.

The time line may be off and I may be wrong but all this might relate back to the Babylon Bee having a nice interview with Elon a while ago. Then boom twitter boots the Bee off because of the Man of the Year award given to Rachel Levine piece they did. They refuse to retract so they’ve been off twitter. Musk thinks this isn’t right so being the richest guy around decides to buy them out to correct this injustice.

LOL!

I’d lose it if I became a derisive meme.

I hope that, in addition to making Twitter a bastion of free speech, Elon makes hundreds of billions of dollars of profit off of it.

Cuban was strangely behind Musk on this, believe it or not.

I’m still not subscribing to them. They’re still boring and tedious and stupid. When it gets to google play, I may join Truth Social, but just as a virtue signal.

Proverbs 11:14 kjv
Where no counsel is, the people fall:
But in the multitude of counsellers there is safety.

Proverbs 15:22 (KJV)
“Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counselors they are established”.

Proverbs 24:6 (ESV)
..for by wise guidance you can wage your war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory.

Apple ‘helped’ me by removing my well-functioning apps to the cloud.

Then I could NOT get them back because they had been upgraded and would not run on my old operating system.

Bastards told me I needed to buy a newer phone!

Will that be more efficient than the Lib way of just implanting ideas into your brain?
