I wouldn't worry too much about neuralink "driving electrodes into brain tissue." 85% of them retract in a reasonable timeframe.
That'd be funnier if the process didn't leave that tissue with irreparable scars.
It's about as safe as my FSD. Some of you may die, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

I actually have a bit of hope for this one, since they seem to have figured out a way to avoid one of the known problems with these systems. At very least, it's an angle worth exploring.
