MUSK AND NEURALINK CHALLENGES IN CONTEXT
The only thing to learn from this is that musk’s method of rapid development by hyper experimentation, does not translate to implantable medical devices. And that while Neuralink is the first mover, those that were second movers, ran with his company’s research, and were more cautious in experimentation in preparation for FDA approval have caught up and have not incurred the skepticism of regulators.
My concern has always been that while Musk and team have been correctd that the most accessible and unabiguous sections of the brain are those of the motorcortex, and as such integration with motor functions that most basic and most possible, that the number of connections necessary to do so might be extremely difficult to achieve. Now, I’ve only seen a few bits of their tech and it’s absolutely amazing. So as far as I know this is another conflict created by the aggressivness of his research and development methods colliding with the backwardness of our regulatory structures. and this collision is itself part of the major disruption he is trying to bring about.
Similar disruptions have been caused by the Russian strategic production vs american, and now Iraelie military research and development vs american. In other words there is a defect in not only our schools, our academy, our government, that is archaic and needs reform. And musk, the japanese in manufacturing, the Finns in education, the Germans in government, and the Israelies in military procureent are all teaching us what’s wrong with our system that needs ‘modernization’.
