How do you kill all the monkeys then proceed to human trials? That seems wrong.

davecat.bsky.social•536 days ago

Heh. Like being wrong's ever stopped him before.

whatever, DAD

susanangela.bsky.social•536 days ago

I wouldn't let him put chips on a plate with my fish!

Strength is irrelevant. Resistance is futile. We wish to improve ourselves. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own.

Hard pass

he can do for your brain what he's done for, well, everything he's ever touched

stevieshoes.bsky.social•536 days ago

There has to be a way to peer pressure Elon into being the first person to do it.

denniswatson.bsky.social•536 days ago

Will it let him remotely shut you down and lock you out, like the Tesla? More to the point, given how he treats Tesla customers, why would ANYONE let this cartoonish super villain put a chip in their brain?

peterfsmith.bsky.social•536 days ago

Come to think of it, didn't the super villain in the first Kingsman movie (played by Samuel L. Jackson) also implant chips into people's skulls?

(Maybe not in their brains, but it still served the purpose of eliminating people remotely when he wanted to. Poor Mark Hamill.)

Damnit Tom! Don't ruin this for the rest of us.

You’ll change your tune once your chip is installed!

tetonkali.bsky.social•536 days ago

I would already have to have one to even think about doing it. Tesla can't build a workable self driving car ain't noway I'd let a Muck owned company put a chip in my head!

Torment Nexus time!

Total Perspective Vortex but it's just Elon telling you why he's the most important person in the universe

Maybe I WANNA be the main character in a story of dystopian body horror.

jimmytwohands.bsky.social•536 days ago

What if I want to reenact that scene in scanners?

zantalador.bsky.social•536 days ago

Can’t wait for him to make my basic neurological functions have a monthly subscription

plinkfm.bsky.social•536 days ago

Or anywhere else in your body.

ai78.bsky.social•536 days ago

Love the Gibson-esque idea but holy fuck I would not let anything even remotely associated with him do that to me.

adgwatches.bsky.social•536 days ago

My god, can you imagine letting a surgeon he’d hired touch you for any reason? I’d sooner get in a self-driving Tesla

rebeccakell.bsky.social•536 days ago

Aren't there gov't regulations outlawing this? How is this not being shut down by the FDA?

morentsy.bsky.social•536 days ago

Oh, fuck no.

rkemb.bsky.social•536 days ago

Knew he was going to do something with that list of people who'd pay for a blue tick.
