Remember the phrase «The monkey is about to get out of the bag»? It was spoken by Elon Musk in 2019 regarding the implementation of the neurotechnology startup Neuralink. Well, the philanthropist managed to bring his project to life. Elon Musk has improved the monkey.
“Lawnmower” brought to life
Back in 1992, the science fiction film “Lawnmower” caused a storm of applause from genre fans. Perhaps that was when the idea to upgrade primates, elevating them to a new level, was born. And now, Elon Musk’s monkey plays computer games with its mind.
According to scientists, they managed to eliminate the trauma between the spinal cord and the brain. It’s not entirely clear what this has to do with monkeys. But it immediately becomes clear what this technology is for. Elon Musk is aiming to heal people with various brain or spinal injuries.
All of this looks wonderful. After all, no one has yet figured out how to treat paralyzed people. And Elon Musk appears in the best light here. The idea was met with negativity on social networks. Somehow everyone seems to think that the philanthropist is eager to chip the whole world with COVID-19 vaccines and monitor them with 5G towers. Or maybe it’s just another silly idea, like launching Tesla Roadster into space?
