Whatever ended up happening with that neuralink project? Does that guy still have one? Or did Elon get distracted and forget about his tech living in brains.
He was pressuring his employees to go faster with testing and development, as their competitor (I believe it was Synchron) got approved for human trials way faster.
Well, "move fast and break things" isn't really a good mindset while performing animal trials, and after about 1500 deaths, many due to botched and rushed brain surgery, the research facility actually got audited for animal cruelty allegations (which happens SO rarely because the law basically allows anything when you say it's "research").

This also appears to be his dumbass approach to the federal government.
It's a great strategy, but exclusively for software engineering. Weird tech bros who want to run the world like a software company inherently don't understand that fact.
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuralink, "85% of the device's implant threads had completely detached". They tried a project on a second patient. The U. S. Attorney General, who had been investigating Neualink was escorted out of her office.
