Neuralink will have all participants sign a waiver stating they know about the risks of death, etc etc. People will just sign and ignore all that because Elon!

Never mind that he's an incompetent scammer.

Maybe we should force the participants to go on an exploration trip to the Titanic before they can join...

Waivers can't totally exonerate someone from all harm caused
