I'm sure the Apple Brain Implant will look "cool" and be highly sought after just like their other seemingly-odd gadgets did at the time of their inception (what is this "iPhone" thing?).
- tryrebuilding 6y agoThe iPhone looked cool, or at least not odd, from the start. AirPods would be a good example though IMO, that dangling "wire that stops after an inch"/earring-looking-thing is still strange to me but has become normal.
- psychomugs 6y agoI neither use nor am a fan of AirPods but I appreciate the stem design. It clearly defines the orientation and maintains the classic Apple earbud silhouette, providing contrast that emphasizes the lack of wires coming out of it.

- onion2k 6y agoApple won't release a product like Neuralink themselves until the tech is very mature. If anything went wrong with one and left someone in a brain damaged state it would harm their brand too much. Neural interfaces will come from new companies for a very long time to come.
