White hat or black hat or grey hat?
I bet Elon doesn't even know what color his hat is.
He strikes me as a very smart, very rich boy playing with lots of powerful, dangerous toys.
"Boy" suggests he is acting irresponsibly, or perhaps without consideration. I do not think that is the case. I think he is acting with great consideration.
I don't know what side he's playing for. I don't know what the best path is regarding this type of tech. I don't know that brain implants are bad. I don't know that they are good. I don't know what his intentions are with them (bad or good).
I suggest any tool, especially one so powerful can be used for both extreme bad and extreme good depending on the intentions. I certainly don't trust Musk, but I trust no one (and never will), so that doesn't mean much.
I used to dream up tech just like this, working with exactly the types of things that this tech uses to interface bio and silicon. In fact such tech (not BMI, but nanoscale bio/tech interfaces) was pretty much my whole life. It is hard for me to say I think this is bad or irresponsible. I can only say at this point, with everything going on, it's a hard pass for me.
The veil is too dark, I can't discern any semblance of the truth of these things. I'll not be even considering hardwiring my brain into the cyber sphere until the Cabal is completely dead.
