hello guys and girls me mudahar and
would you get a brain chip put inside
You Now ladies and gentlemen today I
actually have seen something that kind
of blew my mind today I'm a huge fan of
Technology I'm a huge fan of cyberpunk
singularities one day I think that we
probably will be half machine half human
beings okay now before we get to that I
just want to stress I'll be long dead
okay I don't think that's going to
happen for a little bit of time so
ladies and gentlemen today I'm looking
at neuralink okay now you might know
this company uh Elon Musk owns it like
many companies he owns Tesla Twitter
sometimes you get a bit of a mixed bag
now I'm somebody that just likes looking
at things objectively so I'm going to
give a little bit of credit over here
what I'm about to show you is some
pretty cool stuff initially when I saw
it okay and then I went down a rabbit
hole of brain uh interface companies so
let's actually look at what's going on
now neuralink for some quick context and
history has had a pretty tumultuous
reveal for instance if you go to their
website right over here they're pretty
simple all right they'll actually tell
you their mission is to create a
generalized brain interface to restore
autonomy to those with unmet medical
needs today and unlock human potential
tomorrow so for now it's about fixing
people up who have actual medical
problems that you know are unmet and
then tomorrow we download entire [ __ ] to
our brains okay now look I cover
computer malware and all this crazy
stuff so anytime a piece of technology
gets installed in my head if I got to
start firmware updating a piece of tech
in my brain that's scary okay this is
coming from the same guy whose company
updates a vehicle and has severe issues
okay let me tell you something right now
as one of those owners updating a car
from Elon Musk is kind of a mixed bag at
the toss of the coin you could take it
to a service center or actually manage
to drive it so I can only be scared at
what a brain interface Chip is going to
do now looking at the chip it actually
looks mostly like a watch battery almost
a a bigger watch battery with these like
small little threads that I believe
they're supposed to connect into your
brain through a surgery that requires a
robot because no human hands could
apparently do this and here they like
show you what's in here they got the
biocompatible enclosure they've got a
battery that needs to be charged uh from
the outside so I assume you just connect
a little charger to your brain or head
and and let it wirelessly charge using
induction which which sounds weird
almost sounds a little
painful in a way too I mean that that
generates heat like crazy and then of
course you've got like the chips in
electronics over there low power chips
and whatnot and then of course the
threads that Connect into your brain now
if you're wondering whoa muda can I get
a brain chip bro they literally have
first clinical trial is open to
recruitment so if you're part of the
United States or Canada and you're 18
years of age and you're able to consent
and you got quadropolis parolia vision
loss hearing loss the inability to speak
or major limb amputation then please
feel free to sign up and maybe one day
you can get brain chipped in your head
now again one of the actual interesting
things is if you look into the history
of it back in the end of 2022 it was
Reuters that was reporting that the
company neuralink had killed 1,500
animals more than 280 sheep pigs and
monkeys and then of course that was
experiment since 2018 according to the
records reviewed by Reuters and they had
sources with the uh company's animal
testing operations now the total number
of animal debts does not necessarily
indicate that neuralink is violating
regulations or standard practices many
companies routinely use animals and
experiments to advance human Healthcare
and I'll say right now animal testing
happens in a lot of Industries the
automobile industry even in the skincare
industry like we have oneup now which is
a great brand by the way go to got one
up.com uh absolutely do your skincare
routine in literally one pump a day
absolutely designed for somebody that
has stuff to do on a daily basis okay
but again ladies and Gentlemen even
dealing with something like this when we
actually talked to our formulator and we
actually had discussions internally
animal testing there is a lot of red
tape involved with the United States
federal government so obviously
neuralink having to get themselves
tested having to get themselves
constantly into this trouble didn't look
that great and then like months later
after that Elon musk's neuralink
actually got FDA approval and the FDA is
like the scariest US Federal agency
after the Internal Revenue Service okay
the last agencies you want to [ __ ] with
is the IRS and FDA I would be more
scared of these two agencies than the
FBI and the CIA and all these other
three-letter agencies busting down my
door I [ __ ] you not and of course it was
actually insane because they got the
first inhuman clinical trials which is
what has led to an actual human being
getting the brain chip into their head
now if you go to the actual uh neuralink
YouTube channel literally like 12 hours
ago they uploaded the neuralink live
update March 2024 an actual person has
this chip in their head now the reason I
have to mute this is because they
decided to put like I think copyright
music in the background they just had
music running this is filmed kind of
like Mark Zuckerberg crapping on the
Apple Vision Pro inside somebody's house
it's got kind of this homey vibe to it
so again this was literally just shot to
show people what they actually have
going so here he's got like a MacBook
with like chess running on it and of
course like steam in the background and
what's interesting is he's actually able
to move the mouse around through this
unfortunately the actual image is
uploaded in like 240p for some reason
but yes he is actually controlling chess
uh the actual interface is he's
interfacing from his brain chip to the
actual computer so this man is actually
able to control a computer now and do
again tasks that you and I normally
could do uh using the power of their
brain with telekinesis I guess you could
say unlocked he actually installed
telekinetic Powers into their head okay
can you explain a little bit just to
people who maybe don't have any context
on this field or what's going on here
how are you able to actually move the
cursor yeah so we started out with a few
trying out a few different things um we
basically went from what we call kind of
differentiating like imagine movement
versus um attempted movement so a lot of
what we started out with was attempting
to move so I would attempt to move say
my right hand Left Right forward back
to and um from there I think it just
became intuitive for me to start
Imagining the cursor moving um basically
it was like uh using the force on a
cursor and I could get it to move
wherever I wanted just stare
somewhere in the screen and it would
move where I wanted it to um which was
such a wild experience now obviously for
Nolan over here I'm pretty happy that he
actually has his quality of life
improved as I think most people are now
what's interesting is when he talks
about like I just imagine I'm doing
something and he's basically using the
force yeah I mean I guess that's as
close to telekinesis as we're kind of
getting he imagines where he wants the
mouse to go and the mouse just goes
there so again this is a pretty huge
step for this company that I kind of
expected to just sort of sit down Elon
Musk is the kind of guy that promises a
lot of things but I really don't see
them materialized to the point you know
like things like the Tesla Robo taxi
right like the idea of like the Tesla
fully uh you know autonomous driving
system not requiring you to constantly
jiggle the wheel because at that point
it's not an autonomous driving system I
might as well just drive the [ __ ] car
myself so it's weird that you know
you're looking at a guy whose companies
involve Tesla which you know great
luxury car brand for EVS but their
autonomous driving system isn't to the
level it should be or as promised and I
think there's other car manufacturers
like Mercedes that have actually
superseded Tesla when it comes to that
Boon in their wallet uh you've also got
things like Twitter which is you know B
Down Under the [ __ ] and bio crap so
again there's a lot of Misses but this
seems like an actual genuine success
over here right it seems like this is
something awesome for them to show so
again I'm glad to see that you know
people like Nolan actually have their
quality of life improved and like the
next steps apparently is to actually go
beyond and start focusing on fixing a
lot of people with paralysis maybe one
day reigniting a lot of these synapses
and natural like you know um natural
like currents in their brain in order to
actually move again or possibly see and
do things right actually cure a lot of
medical conditions that exist now to me
this is kind of weird because I've
always learned about the brain being
this like Beast that we still have yet
to understand I think when you talk to
anybody right like with in in the terms
of like neurology uh in terms of
Neuroscience the brain is still very
much in a a misunderstood creature we
still don't know entirely how the brain
properly works and it's going to take a
lot more research so maybe this kind of
stuff can accelerate it may I think
we're a long ways away from installing
intelligence and installing stuff into
our head much like a smartphone but for
now it seems like what you can do is
actually control a computer right maybe
one day he can type things out you know
write emails all without even touching a
keyboard or Mouse now do I think you
should get a [ __ ] neuralink should I
get a neural link I think unless you are
actually physically debilitated or
mentally or whatever and you need this
device to function again in society that
is the only reason you should go for it
I don't think you should cosmetically be
getting this just for the sake of
getting it okay the last thing I can
ever trust is a big tech company
constantly involved into my head that's
like that [ __ ] thing from South Park
okay don't don't don't be doing that
don't install the [ __ ] to your head
now I went down the actual Rabbit Hole
of BCI companies which is brain computer
interface organizations and you got
neuralink you've got cognition you've
got paradromics you've got synchron
kernel brain gate Black Rock neurotech
neurable and emotive systems and it just
keeps going on and on and on so there's
a lot more companies that are involved
in the brain interfacing game for
instance since you've got companies like
again the cognition which you're
creating these like brain computer
interface programs which I guess you put
this on your head like a standard like
you know head-mounted device and it's
got like these little prongs that are
able to read the brain activity in your
head you've got brain gate who have been
around for a while too where their
actual like uh brain technology for my
understanding may be slightly less
invasive like I think you still need to
get chipped into your head but they use
like a special Rod that connects up
there just to actually read brainwave
patterns for instance one actual clip I
saw from Seven Years Ago by Stanford was
actually like an individual who had this
thing installed to their head and was
actually typing around in here so again
they were looking around typing things
into it and for people who are
completely disabled getting access to
technology getting access to accessible
Services is probably the best thing you
can actually hope to see so using this
device that obviously reads brain wave
patterns they're able to move this dot
around and interact and typee things out
for people right now one thing that kind
of makes me wonder about this too is
like if this is where we're at where
we're moving a mouse around I don't
understand if we necessarily need Super
invasive brain technology either I
really think this could probably be done
with like a
$237 ey tracker this is the Toby ey
tracker which if you're like a gamer
this is one of those like special
devices you buy if you want to like you
know show people where you're looking at
on your monitor or there are certain
games where you can have like like head
tracking eye tracking I wonder if this
could be used instead of actually
chipping your brain at least for the
functionalities we've kind of seen I see
a lot of people getting blown away but
the more I go down this Rabbit Hole the
more I realize that brain interfacing
Technologies and a lot of this stuff has
already pretty much existed the ey
tracking stuff is in like from what I
understand most actual like VR headsets
these days I think even PlayStation has
it I think Apple Vision Apple Vision Pro
has a great ey track ER obviously it
costs a fair bit I would still say less
than a neuralink or any of these brain
interfacing devices and I think even the
Oculus Quest 3 has ey tracking as well
too so again I don't understand if we
necessarily need this stuff to use a
mouse and keyboard on our system anyways
but I guess that's like the big
breakthrough point for a lot of these
brain interface companies and then it
gets even insane over here ladies and
gentlemen back in 2021 I I looked up
this thing called the neuros Swarm 3
which apparently it's insane if you read
about it the researchers behind neuros
swarm 3 say they're gold coded Nano
sensor which is about the size of a
single virus particle a virus particle
you can even see that with the naked eye
can travel through the bloodstream and
across the bloodb brain barrier once
inside the brain they act like some sort
of antenna converting neural activity
into Optical signals that can be sent
wirelessly to external devices
now one of the things that I could
imagine is like actually having like
full telepathy in this like full
telekinesis like actually being able to
talk to somebody like imagine dming
somebody with a neuralink like you're
just looking at each other and you can
just communicate back and forth through
your like head devices nobody else needs
to hear it's like the codec from Metal
Gear Solid the tiny bones in your ear
only you can hear each other it's crazy
[ __ ] then of course you got other
devices like synchron for instance where
again like the the big breakthrough for
some of these companies is obviously
interacting with like actual uh devices
like right over here this person
apparently has the actual synchron
device into their head and they're just
interacting with again the keyboard
moving a mouse around again I feel like
a lot of the stuff could possibly just
be done with ey tracking instead of
these like super expensive and invasive
techniques but then again this is also
meant to interact with numerous devices
and not just one in general but yeah the
actual case that every single person is
showing and it's not just Elon it's like
all these other companies I feel could
be done in a much cheaper less invasive
manner but then again I don't run a
Brain Company one Brain Company I did
see though was this one right here it's
called prophetical and they have a tool
called Halo the Halo is a tool for
humans to explore their
subconscious this is the most advanced
neurotech wearable ever created the Halo
Morpheus one system generates neural
activation sequence patterns of natural
lucid dreams On Demand by utilizing
multi-element focused ultrasound
generative 3D spatial pulse do just list
everything imaginable I I don't know any
of this [ __ ] I'll just believe it
deposit to reserve your headset so you
pay them a 100 bucks now and then two
grand later and apparently this device
is designed to help you start lucid
dreaming literally you can induce a
lucid dream and explore your
subconsciousness so while you sleep you
can get things done I guess you telling
me I can space travel in my dreams use
magical powers if I buy a $2,000 headset
see I don't know this is one of those
things where now we're getting into the
world of like pseudo science sure I I
I'll believe it when I see it I'll
believe it when I see the tech YouTuber
actually cover this but yeah this is
like the most advanced like weird form
of like brain interfacing technology out
there but yeah I went down a rabbit hole
to like look into some of these
companies and I'm pretty surprised at
some of the progress going on now look
at the end of the day this stuff is made
in order to actually change lives for
the better right people that are
paralyzed people have debilitating
conditions I think if we can one day
cure that using a lot of this Tech then
I'm 100% for it but some of the use
cases that I've seen have made me go
from being blown away to wondering if we
actually do need some of this brain Tech
if all we've gotten so far is like
keyboard mouse interactions I feel like
that may be just done through ey
tracking technology anyways but hey look
maybe this is like baby steps right I
mean we just put a chip into our head
the fact that it works and lesions
aren't forming and our body isn't
attacking a foreign object is probably
awesome enough but that being said
ladies and gentlemen this is me mudahar
