How long before it tells you what to think? They're publishing this to influence hearts and minds. Imagine all the ailments we could cure if we just stuck a chip in someone's head! If you're against it you look like a heartless bastard. Seems similar to how vaccines were sold.
That is the side of the coin most folks would not get to see. Im glad you brought it up, yet I fear some folks will simply say you are a Debbie downer for going against the grain. "What a wonderful thing to happen to ALS patients" will be the new mantra while at the same time silently programming us to accept that all computer interfaces are benign. On a side note I wonder how much this operation would cost for an average patient, one that is not a lab rat for science.
Misused it's obviously a horrible thing. It doesn't even need to tell you what to think: it could just work correctly 99% of the time, and whenever it matters the bad guys could just override. Like our cars that drive just fine until the rare instances when the BH want to take over and kill someone.
