As if the $24 million pink diamond implanted into his forehead wasn’t enough, Lil Uzi Vert is now ready for a brain implant.
The “XO Tour Life” rapper voiced his interest in the chip over the weekend when he tweeted, “Neuralink,” which is Elon Musk’s start-up firm developing a brain implant that will administer long-term treatment for neurological conditions such as dementia.
Canadian musician and friend Grimes replied, “Let’s get brain chips.” Uzi was obviously down for the ride, stating, “I’m ready when we doing it?”
Musk told users during a private Clubhouse conversation last month that Neuralink had been implanted in a monkey’s brain recently. He claimed that the monkey began playing video games using only its mind.
Made to order and shipped to your door.
“You can’t even see where the neural implant was put in, except that he’s got a slight like a dark mohawk,” Musk said during that conversation, per The Hill.
There is currently no date on its widespread availability or when Uzi will be able to get his hands on this latest innovation.
