    Depends on the intended use.

    Human/brain interfaces have tons of potential for helping people with injuries to their central nervous system. Someone could eventually regain the ability to walk with just a few chips and electrodes.

    However if it’s like “fuck yeah I wanna mainline the Internet” then yeah, that shit sucks.

    Of course Elon owns the company, so it’s bound to be the stupid thing.

      Yes, helping people in a medical sense that is totally acceptable. But I really don’t want them to become something like smartphone. Yeah you can live without a smartphone but realistically it is not possible.
