Exciting and scary. This Elon Musk is going to go down as one of the most impactful humans of all time (Tesla, SpaceX, Starling, The Boring Company, X and Neuralink). Regardless of what you think of him, as a person, his impact on the world is already profound and he's just getting started. (or, at least his companies are).

Neuralink has been studying the ability to put computer implants into the human body. Initially, the goal is to help people with muscular or nervous system problems to function more normally. However, it doesn't take much to imagine where this can go. HIstory is replete (with the release of the movie Oppenheimer this summer) with inventions that were intended to do good but were ultimately tools to do bad.

Amazing.

New modern look for a real gearhead
 
First results are in and it looks pretty promising.

Saw that last night on CNBC’s Last Call. The man with the neuralink was paralyzed nine years ago in a diving accident. He was ecstatic that he can control the computer just by thought. Will change his life.
 
Please try it Elon first, then send him to Mars, so he can be the most impactful human there during your lifetime too.
 
Most boomer guy alive came up to me in a sleeveless Penn State shirt and a jug a sweet tea and said "those things killed my dad". Yes I already knew that by one look at ya boomer - ya daddy smoked menthols and stormed Dormandy and fought along the haunted spinal ridge of Grinch Polynesian and handles FDR's wheelchair during the economic downturn and youre a boomer that's gonna live to be an 820 year old Star Wars robot ...
 
I hope the first successful Neuralink patient to gain some basic motor functions from it uses it to flip Elon the bird. A man can dream.

I honestly don't get it. Love or hate the Elon of DOGE, the guy has made incredible advancements in society. This is a miracle and of hope for anyone who is neurologically afflicted. It is like being mad at a guy for not saying "you're welcome" after you thanked him for giving you a million dollars. As a conservative, I'd never enjoy a TV show, movie or song if I hated them due to their political affiliations. It is funny left left-leaning people make even something like this, personal

Yes, and dream about government waste and fraud. You libs seem to like it so. Get that Maryland Dad back here right now while you're at it.

That’s about as stupid and insane as anything ever posted on ghis board.

Congratulations! 😵‍💫😜🧐😹
But it would be funny. Dude can't use his arms or legs. A miracle is provided by a crazed entrepreneur. After all that, the dude's first move after being gifted the use of his body is to flip the inventor the bird.

Agreed... I don't get it either. What he has done and is doing society yet people on the left loved him and now he is leaning to the right he is the enemy of the world in their eyes no matter what he and his companies have invented to make lives better. To each their own I guess...

Yep...here is my take on the once left-leaning Musk

  • Liz Warren tried to attack him for not paying taxes while being a billionaire. Musk tried to get out his message that he was simply following Warren's tax code and would soon be the largest taxpayer of all time. But the media would not carry his message so he bought Twitter to bypass them.
  • He has a child who transgendered and feels that the normalization of this, especially for pre-pubescent kids, is not aligned with the best interest of society
  • He is angered by red tape and graft, so he gravitated to creating DOGE to limit fraud, waste, and abuse.

I can appreciate that people disagree with him, but he is revolutionizing the transportation industry (Tesla, while lowering carbon footprints and fighting global warming), medical industry (Nuralink), high speed internet industry (Starlink, including providing invaluable connections to drive drones worldwide to Ukraine), public transportation (The Boring Company) and space travel (SpaceX). I don't think the world has seen such a visionary in my lifetime. And probably in all of history.

He's not for open borders or aiding and abetting illegal criminal gang members or allowing the government to waste tax payer dollars on garbage so he's no good.

the left has totally stopped attempting to hide their authoritarian bent..tried to bankrupt and imprison trump, take him off the ballot to stop him getting elected..nullified an election in romania for supposed "russian interference", eventually arrested the non EU approved candidate..listed afd as an extremist group in germany even though a recent poll showed them as the most popular party in germany, already talking about outlawing them as a party..marine lapen arrested in france and barred from running in the next election even while appealing the verdict..the left has decided to use the judiciary in place of running popular candidates, they will just arrest anybody who is capable of running and beating them..no doubt, had trump lost, he'd be rotting in prison and elon would be next...dem pol's have already verbalized that his companies should be nationalized, his assets seized and his citizenship stripped..the same people demonizing elon and trump were friendly to them before it became political, politics is a religion to the leftists..

I wonder what it would take to get your neurons back up and firing properly. That’s beyond humanity’s reach, I reckon.

Former Democrats:

Donald Trump
Tulsi Gabbard
Elon Musk
Joe Rogan

Still a Democrat - RFK Jr.

None of their political positions and beliefs have changed. Even Bernie Sanders recognizes and verbalizes the Democratic party has become a legitimate threat to democracy.
