I've seen this kind of thing as well as people given an entirely new sense (a sense of direction similar to how birds can sense magnetic north) with just an EEG cap. Why would you need to implant something directly in the brain to do this?

By having someone locked inside the trunk that drives in your stead? Sounds very Musk.

I was thinking more like the patient will die, like all of the monkeys did, he'll then take the brain and put it in the Tesla. Problem solved. I mean it all makes sense because this subject has already been learning to play Mario kart. Weehee in your Tesla

Someone already pointed to captain laserhawk, buts that's a last years series. But yeh I get what you mean haha. Could be just a black mirror episode, or a love death robots episode.
