Marcus Gerhardt, chief executive officer of Salt Lake City-based Blackrock Neurotech, said that in particular, curbs on access to chip manufacturers in China could limit BCI development.
“It would hamper a nascent industry,” Gerhardt said. “It would break its neck, quite frankly, if we were not able to access these production sites.”
China has deployed considerable resources to artificial intelligence and brain-computer interfaces, including a brain project with goals that include military applications. In the United States, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency’s Intelligent Neural Interfaces program is exploring concepts including allowing troops to control weapons with their brains.
BCIs are considered a dual-use technology, meaning they have consumer applications along with military. For that reason, they are subject to regulation from the Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Standards, and could one day be subject to export controls.

This is a dangerous slippery slope, especially in the hands of these brainwashed emotionless “greenies”. Not content with sabotaging our food factories, restricting our fossil fuel supplies, poisoning us with fake “vaccines”, etc., now they want to get right to it and implant brain controls. No thanks!
Can’t regulate this.
How are we gonna get the required help for Fetterman.
“It would hamper a nascent industry,” Gerhardt said. “It would break its neck, quite frankly”, said CEO Dr. Frankenstein.
Don’t just “regulate” them. They are traitors against their species and should be treated accordingly.
I see nothing in my copy of the Constitution that says the government should have anything to do with regulating this.
Check the commerce clause.
“...Brain-implant companies...”
This isn’t going to end well.
Well you have to trust us we’re a tech company 😁
Tech companies make stuff that sit on your desk, not that go in your head.
And Bill Gates wonders why people think he’s evil
