Right, but the (largest) problem is that at Neuralink testing on monkeys is merely a proxy for progress.

According to you, and some "experts" I assume.
Nueralink is under federal investigation so you can save your scare quotes.
And then the bleeding hearts bled, and pleaded for me to wander down another path.

> Dec 2022, pigs and sheep died, no explanation of how, no explanation of to what purpose, no discussion of what law or ethic was broken.

> Feb 2023, contaminated hardware shipped improperly

Can you please cite anything specific? All I want is an instance of some animal being butchered; not by some bureaucratic corporate mistake; not by some individual slip, but by actually evil behavior or causing unnecessary pain to an animal.

How is everyone crying so hard when there is essentially no information of what actually happened? 60 pigs died- ok, how and why?
