I like that their implant is simply laid on top of the brain, instead of driving electrodes into brain tissue like Neuralink. I'd like to keep my brain unscarred.

I wouldn't worry too much about neuralink "driving electrodes into brain tissue." 85% of them retract in a reasonable timeframe.

That'd be funnier if the process didn't leave that tissue with irreparable scars.

It's about as safe as my FSD. Some of you may die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

You're not wrong. But it doesn't seem like anything is going to stop Elon, so gallows humor is all I've got.
