Oh no the neural implant project backfired, I must now spread the logs throughout the building an leave a distress message in Latin

"Day 33: Problematic symptoms developing in Patient X. Current fluctuations from the implant are causing unwanted signals in the somatosensory cortex. The patient is expressing aggressive behavior as a result, presumably due to the interference of the implant on normal sensory function. It is unknown what is causing the fluctuations.

Day 45: Patient X sedated following a violent outburst that injured a staff member. fMRI scans indicate an uptick in activity in the premotor cortex compared to the previous scan four days ago. Patient X not responding well to the Brain-Computer Interface. Violent aggression may not be consciously controllable.

Day 46: Patient X escaped Secure Room Alpha. Lockdown initiated. Quarantine measures are now in effect. There is a loud banging on the lab door. This might be my last journal entry. Before I leave this Earth, please let the shareholders know I created value for them."

Imagine voluntarily granting an advertising company direct access to your brain.

Has anyone a TL;DR why they could do that? Last time I heard anything about Neuralink they were mass killing animals with botched implants.

Just recently I was reading about blind people who got experimental eye implants several years ago. They're having serious problems now because the company stopped supporting the implants.

Do people think this is new? We have been able to do this for decades. I'm a lowly PhD student and even I get to work with humans whose brains we are actively recording from (although I don't put the electrodes in there myself).

Just another instance of Muskrat talking about things he doesn't know. I used to think he was a genius when he was talking about rockets, then he started talking about things I know (neuro & AI)...

Musk can't even make a proper ev why would anyone want a product of his in their brain.

Oh shit, those logs were always like that too! Short and revealing, I always wondered who would write like that. Well here we are.

I always find it weird when videogame do that, in writing even.

"the monster is at my door, i don't think i can get through this. Ohh shit the door is broken! The monster is charging at me! I love you, my dear wife, goodb"

Dude could've find a way out but instead he start to scribble down his thought in his journal.

You need to buy Brain Lite subscription to be able to think.

Who had Doom irl on their 2024 bingo card?

The device allows you to directly post your thoughts on Xitter.

Wasn’t there a South Park episode that predicted exactly this? Didn’t they even call it Shitter?

A lot of these types read sci-fi dystopia books and think, "yeah that would be really cool actually."

Wanna bet he never gets one himself?

Straight out of Doom 3.

This is like the plot to any sci-fi horror or tragedy show ever. Wealthy CEO insists on disregarding the damage the medical implants do and pushes ahead to work on human trials.

What’s next? Zombie Super Soldiers?

Does anyone remember the OCZ NIA ("Neural Impulse Actuator")?

It was a gaming input device, a simple headband that measured brain activity externally. For beginners, if you thought really hard of "pitch black" or "bright white," it could measure that and you had your first two thought-controlled buttons. Advanced users could train themselves all the way to several buttons and analog inputs, i.e. control joystick input through their mind.

(just Google/DDG "OCZ NIA" to watch some old review and test videos)
