He purchased Twitter, the largest “Public Square” in the entire world. And coterminous with it . Elon Musk is also making implants to link the brain with computers and Smartphones — and very much more. There will be “many applications” in time for all, he insists.

“Tesla founder Elon Musk has launched tech startup Neuralink to build implants that connect human brains with computer interfaces via artificial intelligence.
The approaching technology would see groups of minuscule, flexible electrode “threads” implanted into the human brain by a neurosurgical robot.
These threads detect and record the electrical signals in the brain, and transmit this information outside the body.
“This has the potential to create a scalable high-bandwidth brain-machine interface (BMI) system, meaning that it connects the brain to an external device to form a brain-machine interface… The launch of Neuralink follows Musk’s prediction at the World Government Summit in Dubai two years ago that humans will need to digitally enhance their brains if they are to keep up with computers in a future dominated by artificial intelligence.
Using compassion as the pretext for the Antichristic?
“Elon Musk is renowned for his innovative mind and unceasing desire to improve multiple facets of life such as transportations, space exploration, cities, and now, the human brain.
“The famed CEO and inventor announced the Neuralink brain microchip that could give humans equal footing with AI technology.(emphasis added)
Musk’s Neuralink is targeting the first (stage) application on people on people with spinal cord injury. But stresses that there are many future applications for the technology. Although clinical trials are yet to go underway, the team notes that safety is at the core of the design process. Link technical innovations include improving safety for future surgical procedures and more.

“Eternal life is only worth pursuing if we have any idea what “life” really is. Is it a simulation or a divine miracle? Musk wants brain implants so we can live forever. After all, who doesn’t want to live forever?
“But Musk never considers if humanity is more than a data set, and the question of life is not merely whether we can keep said data set “running.” There is a mystery to human life which should remain at the mercy of the Creator. — Elon Musk’s Disturbing Dalliance With Transhumanism

The Created Image of God. “Someone, Not A Something.”
Genesis 1:26-27: “Then God said, ‘Let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over . . .all the earth. . . .’ So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.”
The Catechism explains how we are made in God’s image, noting that among visible creatures only man is “able to know and love his creator,” and “the only creature on earth that God has willed for its own sake” (Catechism, no. 356).
The Catechism adds: Being in the image of God the human individual possesses the dignity of a person, who is not just something, but someone. He is capable of self-knowledge, of self-possession and of freely giving himself and entering into communion with other persons. And he is called by grace to a covenant with his Creator, to offer him a response of faith and love that no other creature can give in his stead (no. 357. Emphasis added.).
