    Learning something? The only new information is that you’re swallowing the PR pitch hook, line and sinker.

    Telling me what a PR pitch from an Elon Musk company says is like reciting the more coherent parts of a Trump rally: you may think that you’re teaching me something, but what you’re actually doing is repeating their unsubstantiated claims as if they were facts.

      Bro, the technology exists and is being tested to help right now, there is no PR pitch here you goofy fucker.

      Telling me what a PR pitch from an Elon Musk company says

      Where did I do this? lol. Reality isn’t your strong suit is it?

      is like reciting the more coherent parts of a Trump rally: you may think that you’re teaching me something, but what you’re actually doing is repeating their unsubstantiated claims as if they were facts.

      Now you’re just talking to yourself, it seems.

        That something exists doesn’t mean it works.

        is being tested to help right now

        You mean it’s being tested to sell. Got any source other than Musk, someone who works for him or someone using either as their only source?

        Because “we swear this thing we’re trying to get approved so we can get a lot of money helps people” isn’t proof.

        Especially when the boss is notorious for exaggerating and sometimes even inventing out of whole cloth the benefits of his products.

          I’ve literally linked YouTube videos from news shows demonstrating the technology working.

          Could you just forget Elon musk for a minute and think?

            Oh yes, the most reliable source that makes skipping to the pertinent part easiest: youtube videos 🙄

            demonstrating the technology working

            But not the specific chip by the specific company we’re talking about.

            Could you just forget Elon musk

            Oh wouldn’t that just be wonderful? Alas, it’s his company and thus his tendency towards cutting corners, exaggerating and straight up making things up about the products of his companies is relevant.

            I’m no luddite, but Musk has shown that he can’t be trusted to make a well-built car, so why should anyone trust him with a device implanted into their fucking BRAIN??
