In Episode 183 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill WeinbergĀ continues his rant on the dangers of artificial intelligence, this time focusing on the threat it poses to human evolution.Ā The advent ofĀ Elon Musk’s Neuralink brain implant technology, now approved for human testing by the FDA, actually portends theĀ ultimateĀ abolition of humanity,Ā and its replacement by a conditioned post-humanity stripped of all dignity and reason.Ā But there are signs of human resistance to robot rule that we must fan the flames of before it is too lateāsuch as the currentĀ strike byĀ Vancouver dockworkers against their replacement by automation.Ā Listen on SoundCloud or via Patreon.

Neuralink implants brain chip in first human
The first human patient has received an implant from brain-chip startup Neuralink on Sunday and is recovering well, the company’s billionaire founder Elon Musk said. “Initial results show promising neuron spike detection,” Musk said in a post on the social media platform X (Twitter) Jan. 29.
Spikes are activity by neurons, cells that use electrical and chemical signals to send information around the brain and to the body.Ā (Reuters)
A move which of course portends the extinction of human freedom.
Similar clinical trials of brain-computer interface (BCI) are underway at Synchron.
