The funny thing is, I suspect Elon would kind of agree with your sentiment, his initial motivation for creating Neuralink was realising that far too few organisations, governments and individuals will take AI safety seriously (he campaigned about AI safety for years), so his solution, based on a fatalistic (and probably realistic) point of view was to try and come up with a way for humans to at least have a chance of being part of the singularity when it happens (if you think that's daft, then I'd urge you to spend some time looking into AI research and AI safety, an AI safety researcher called Robert Miles has some great and very accessible YT videos on the subject as a starting point)

@@orshy1 That's a very tough one. There's so much corruption everywhere. I've heard about musk approaching different governmental bodies, but nobody bites on his warnings.

I don't think we as a civilization should fear new tech but we also need to understand that at some point someone WILL try to take advantage of it. Whether that's something small like making it stupid expensive or on a darker note destroying 100s of 1000s of people's lives. This is why we should embrace the advancements but do everything in our power to safeguard the user and bystanders before ever releasing it to the public.

Hi, Mr. Meh. I read your comment and I was interested and I'm sorry for what happened to you. I also find myself in practically the same situation as you. Let me explain; I was diagnosed with a brain tumour, but sincerely I have not yet been convinced that I will have surgery for fear of having other consequences as a result of this operation because the brain is a very very sensitive organ. With your experience, what could you suggest to me?

The light from the environment, as captured by a motion camera, would be translated into a series of signals and relayed directly into the corresponding parts of the brain that would normally be receiving them. The amount of detail would be reduced, but the person could see just fine to navigate on foot without an issue.
