This is going to be the justification when trying it on people as well.
we should echo this ironically as we cram one into his brain in a distinctly non-surgical manner
Neuralink advanced medical instillation technique
People with locked in syndrome have occasionally been given early BCIs on this justification, but generally they’re already consenting (IIRC the first real recipient of one had to have it taken back out at the end due to ethics requirements, despite wanting to keep it.)
If a Simpson’s writer gave this line to Mr. Burns, it would be too psychopathic.
I wonder what Elon really means by terminal. How elastic is the term? The monkeys were old? Or some of the monkeys were old? Or some of the monkeys might have been old? Or all the monkeys were adult monkeys so “terminal” means “not juvenile”.
His team went dumpster diving behind a cosmetics research lab and got all the still-good monkeys out of the trash.
Meanwhile the cosmetic company: We gave monkeys with stable health signals to Neuralink so we are free of their death, too.
He meant airport terminal, checkmate tankies
Edit: Just wanted to point out he said terminal “moneys”
This has big “Heather Heyer actually died as a result of a heart attack!!” energy
Wow, so humane
Oh please daddy Musk put your nueromancaer death tech in my brain, I am bazinga ready.
Right. Sure.

Terminal Monkeys… not a bad band name
Hey hey we’re the Monkeys
And people say our brains are machines
But we’re too busy dying
For our results to be seen.
Yeahhhhhh I’ve taken enough animal ethics courses to know this shit isn’t supposed to fly
freak demon
We all going to ignore that he misspelled moneys for monkeys?
I hope Elon takes his rocket to the Planet of the Apes and gets ridiculed by Dr. Zaius while locked in a cage.
Science cannot move forward without heaps! (Of dead monkeys)
They just had a bunch of terminally ill research monkeys hanging about. That’s definitely a thing that happens. It’s definitely not like live primate studies are so hard to both arrange and get past an ethics board that most people just give up and go straight to human trials,
