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.

Do we have any concrete evidence that he’s even telling the truth? Something other than a tweet on a platform he owns? He seems to lie often.
78 0 ReplySmells a lot like "Funding secured" or any of the other insane promises he's made.
There's the hyper loop, the cyber truck missing deadlines and quality concerns and range lies, all of the Tesla delays, etc
That said they did FDA approval for human trials last May https://www.reuters.com/science/elon-musks-neuralink-gets-us-fda-approval-human-clinical-study-brain-implants-2023-05-25/
22 0 ReplyDon't forget that time when he held up a piece of glass, pointed to a house behind him with a glass roof, showed a presentation of power output metrics and dualrability tests, and said they made solar roofs and just needed to figure out how to manufacture at scale
They had not, in fact, made a working prototype - they were still trying to figure it out. He stood up there with a piece of pretty glass (that was not in fact any type of solar panel) and entirely fabricated test results, and he lied over and over.
He must've gotten some artist's design model, produced several roofs worth, and made all of it up.

FDA had denied, company presumably made some sort of changes that were not publicized (or paid off the right people), FDA approved.

7 0 ReplyIn my experience, I've seen a muti billion dollar company denied new product testing for errors on paperwork.
My former employer had to etch "not for human use" in the devices because the FDA didn't clear them. They took them to use on sheep instead.
The FDA, as long as it doesn't fall prey to the revolving door like every other regulator, is extremely effective.

there are ways around them. convince them your product is "substantially equivalent" and they don't look too hard, apparently. (see - hard silicone penile implants)
