Apple's new BCI-HID has dropped.

Buterin is advocating for an approach emphasizing “pluralistic identity,” in which “there is no single dominant issuing authority, whether that’s a person, or an institution, or a platform. This makes sense.

New Bluetooth input paradigm - brain control. This will become an industry standard.

Australia is world class in top-tier scientific output per capita, but is below average in start up company formation in deep tech / biotech / medtech. Israel is world class in start up company formation, entrepreneurial and innovation culture, despite having lower scientific

Implantable BCI company? Not for the faint hearted. It’s ~ 15+ years. Control your burn if early. You can’t spend to accelerate safety. (Below, “clinical” means fully implantable technology stack and company sponsored trial) Assumptions based on class 3 PMA stories and looking

“Forget the headlines—@neuralink may be louder, but Synchron is further along. It reached FDA trials first, secured a global IP footprint, and partnered with @nvidia. Boards betting on visibility over defensibility may be backing the wrong horse." "While Neuralink commands

5/5 I think this techno-feudalism lends itself to commoditizing humans and that’s not good as AGI settles in. I also think UBR would be a really really bad idea for humanity. People need to keep busy. We have to find cool shit to keep working at and not sucking at a teat.

4/5 But even with an awesome board running the country, I’d be worried about giving too much autonomy to the AI upgrading the tech stack. I'd like a bit more transparency in how we roll out AI across government agencies.

3/5 Where it separates: Yarvin critiques Elon’s hardcore style, arguing successful rule isn’t just about efficiency or revenue. He emphasizes valuing the core assets — people and land. I think Elon believes he is valuing the assets.

2/5 Dark Enlightenment calls for structural change and devalues the independent voter in favor of a “more competent and efficient” ruling class, empowered by technology. It includes gutting the bureaucracy and closely aligns with Elon’s current approach — running government like

1/5 It’s not clear if Dark MAGA and Dark Enlightenment are connected. Curtis Yarvin recently said he hadn’t met Musk. He does, however, have a relationship with Peter Thiel and JD Vance. Dark MAGA is more of a Trump meme culture, while Dark Enlightenment is a deeper thesis:

Humbled by interactions over the last few weeks with brilliant minds working on NeuroAI. We are doing preliminary experimentation work on foundation models of cognition and it is raising a bunch of amazing questions Sean Escola @juanbenet @MaryamShanechi @patrickmineault

We are unveiling a roadmap to “Cognitive AI”, in partnership with @nvidia. The ultimate destination of BCI will be large scale brain foundation models of cognition. @emilylmullin from @WIRED has done a great job capturing what that means. @petereyoo presented our vision in a
