Additional veterinary reports show the condition of a female monkey called Animal 15 during the months leading up to her death in March 2019. Days after her implant surgery, she began to press her head against the floor for no apparent reason; a symptom of pain or infection, the records say. Staff observed that though she was uncomfortable, picking and pulling at her implant until it bled, she would often lie at the foot of her cage and spend time holding hands with her roommate.

Animal 15 began to lose coordination, and staff observed that she would shake uncontrollably when she saw lab workers. Her condition deteriorated for months until the staff finally euthanized her. A necropsy report indicates that she had bleeding in her brain and that the Neuralink implants left parts of her cerebral cortex focally tattered.

Wow...

I'm sure the people screeching about Fauci "feeding beagle puppies to sand flies" will be just as harsh in their judgment of Elon, right?

Virtual Reality gets good enough that through it and other experiments can enhance the intelligence of individuals. In the beginning of the movie said tech was used on chimpanzees, and the clip below was part of the result of one getting loose. (yeah really, it was 1993, so...)

Not sure if you make this statement knowing this or not, but Neuralink is implanted by a robot, as the precision required is not possible with human hands.

Musk loves to save nickels and dimes, so it will be interesting to see what he has done with Neuralink to save money.

Vet records note that neither infection was likely to be cleared, in part because the implant was covering the infected area. The monkey was euthanized on January 6, 2020.

oh shit

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


Typically the media coverage here has been misleading and bombastic. Like the line about every Monkey being euthanized. That's just the experimental end point. They were always going to be euthanized because doing ex-vivo examination is super important here.

Hard to say if anything was particularly wrong here. Implanting devices into the brain is extremely invasive and there's issues that can crop up in even perfectly peformed surgieries. Then testing a new mechanical foriegn object that is very complex? I expect many failures and imperfections before success.

The only thing that seems likely is that the teams were rushed by management, probably giving less time to adapt from surgery to surgery.

It's not all that abnormal, for instance, for novel neurosurgical development in mice to take on the order of hundreds of mice before regular success is obseved.
