Elon lied about the monkeys — and he shouldn't be trusted to put his Neuralink chips in human brains.

"They are claiming they are going to put a safe device on the market, and that's why you should invest," Ryan Merkley at the Physicians Committee, told Wired. "And we see his lie as a way to whitewash what happened in these exploratory studies."
Really heartbreaking reading what happened to the monkeys.
People quite rightly think of Elizabeth Holmes as a fraud for making false medical claims about what the Theranos machines could do. So why aren't Elon's claims at Neuralink being held to the same level of scrutiny?

@ajsadauskas @technology I was just going to ask the Theranos/Holmes question.
Once he'll start losing investors' money his lies will catch up to him. Nobody's asking questions as long as line goes up.
It depends on how much money he needs. Investors lost faith in Tesla once, and Elon invested in the company himself
SBF, Holmes, that woman that faked having 30m users on her platform, etc. And Trump never fooled most people, he's been known to be a con man since the 80s to anyone that's been paying attention.
Theranos went down because Holmes was trying to run the same tired start-up scam all the big boys pull but within the confines of the medical industry. She would have succeeded if she had picked something non medical. The FDA doesn't fuck around. If Elon thinks he's smart enough to pull the same shit he's going to "find out" too.
I really, really hope this is the case. I’d love to see him pay some serious consequences, especially if it’s the result of his own arrogance.
I just hope there aren't too many consequences for other people along with it.
Supposedly the FAA doesn't fuck around and yet he managed quite alright with SpaceX, cf https://www.techwontsave.us/episode/186_spacexs_regulatory_evasion_has_consequences_w_eric_roesch
