“...on May 26, 2023, it was reported that the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has given Elon Musk’s company, Neuralink, permission to begin implanting brain chips in patients.”
Oh, Puh-lease! My BIL has a ‘chip’ in his head that helps to control his Parkinson’s symptoms. While he is ungainly and uses a cane, he CAN walk on his own again and is OUT of his wheelchair. Rush regained his hearing due to some of the same technology. I’d do either myself if I ever needed to!
Kind of a MIRACLE, versus The Mark of the Beast.

The mark of the beast will supposedly be placed in the palm of the hand. Where do people hold their cellphones?
I have a neighbor who had the same thing done to her.
She had to be awake when they did the procedure so the doctors could set it to her needs.!

Beneficial; God's Blessing on your BIL. Taken voluntarily. But the Mark will be required and administered by force to those who resist.
Kind of a MIRACLE, versus The Mark of the Beast.
Nobody said that all chipping is the mark of the beast. The conditions for something to be the mark are very clearly outlined in Scripture.
Technology itself is morally neutral. It's how it's used, or rather misused, that is when it can become a problem and with the chipping, that would be the case.
So the mark of the beast isn't about chipping in and of itself. As a matter of fact, the Bible doesn't tell us specifically what the mark is, but chipping provides a very reasonable explanation for the mark and could allow for the kind of monitoring and control the antichrist would have over the world, especially if there is a cashless society and one world currency.
What to watch out for is the requirement of the chipping as necessary to buy or sell and that it be applied to the right hand or forehead as required by a one world government.
Many of the scenarios laid out in the book of Revelation are having the stage set for them and the use of biochips is potentially one of those things. Get people used to the idea, pass it off as a good thing, which it can be under the right circumstances, and people won't even think twice about complying because they are used to thinking of it as a good thing or at least harmless, and they will have been preconditioned by that to be willing to accept it.
