I think Musk is an eccentric person, but is quite consistent with his thoughts. If you follow him on Twitter, he’s just a pro-tech guys who’s a future-thinker. And didn’t one of his Tesla features (some kind of defense mode) which people initially thought was gimmicky, ended up helping people during the CA wildfires? He’s an innovative person and seemingly knows what we need before we even realize it.

And yeah, he’s working on Neuralink –something that will make us superhuman. What do you think about that?


Don't get me wrong, I want the era of super and immortal humans to come but I think it's hypocritical of Elon Musk to warn about the dangers of a technology he's exploiting. I am just grateful that nobody took him seriously in that regard: There are now plenty of projects on digital immortality, so soon we'll be able to live in a supercomputer. Exciting, huh?
