You’re insane.
Whoever was implanted with this was restricted to having lost complete motor function and likely had extremely poor quality of life, opting for this procedure as a last hope. I get you’re making a joke but I hope you understand it’s at the expense of someone in a terrible situation who’s undergoing a significant amount of suffering and likely was prior to any interaction with Musk.
