Zuckerberg's long-term plan is to have access to users' brain data. Meta has been investing in neuroscience research and has made a breakthrough. They now have the tech to decode brain signals into sentences, which will be paired with one of the extended reality devices.

OpenBCI time! VRC users have been using Muse and similar stuff for a while. And 100% we need to do it before they can.

Wtf. If there's any one person or company that I don't want access to my BRAIN data, it's Facebook. Followed closely by X. And all of the big tech companies. But them in particular.

We were supposed to have flying cars and shit, not corporations violating your privacy in unimaginably - but continually increasing - horrific ways in order to sell you their products

thing is, if this were open source then it'd be SUPER COOL!! i mean, can you imagine being able to just look at something, take a picture, caption it, send it to a friend without having to lift a finger??

but then facebook enters into the picture and they're not just gonna use it for that...

i think, outside of disability accessibility, it could be cool as a gimmick for a bit, but not be great as an actual control scheme. and then it would almost CERTAINLY be misused by bad actors.

the only way to make it safe is to have the open source implementation beat theirs...

would it not just mean they could use the open source version? (not to say open source is bad, i'm all for open source)

iif there's a viable to use open source version people can buy, then people can get the benefits without the data collection
