The biggest issue with Neuralink (for consumers) is the basic problem with artificial implants and their side effects. Teeth implants, knee implants they generate additional risk of low level inflammation in the body over time. Even generally unproblematic silicon breast implants that just hang there have scar tissue and can cause immune system reactions. Brain surgery is many times riskier. If Neuralink could create way to circumvent all these problems it would be huge breakthrough even without the BCI.
