So, what's the point en neuralink that justifies killing monkeys and now a few humans? It's that important to bring us a few steps forward into another dystopia?

Short term: giving people with certain disabilities control over their bodies. Things like allowing paralysed people the ability to move, or giving sight to the blind, etc. Long term: changing the way we communicate with computers and each other.
