So... Alexandr Wang — billionaire tech wizard, founder of Scale AI, and the guy currently helping Meta flirt with superintelligence — just said something insane on a podcast. “I probably won’t have kids until Neuralink is ready.” 👀 Yeah. Not until his future baby can have a chip in its head. No baby. No brain chip. No deal. And just like that, 2025 got weirder. The “Why?” Is WILDER Here’s his logic: Babies are basically neuroplastic putty. Their brains soak up language, emotions, and TikTok dances like sponges. So if we’re building brain-computer interfaces (like Neuralink) that help humans think faster, remember more, and maybe even speak telepathically… why not give that upgrade to your kid straight out of the womb? He’s not kidding. He’s waiting to parent in the post-human era. Okay, let’s zoom out. Neuralink isn’t just sci-fi babble anymore. It’s already inside actual humans. One ALS patient even used it to edit a video with his brain. Other brain tech startups, Synchron, Motif Neurotech, are building chips to fight depression, paralysis, and memory loss. This stuff is real and moving fast. So imagine this: future kids who can literally upload skills, backup memories, or download new languages like it's Spotify Premium for the brain. Babies 2.0, coming soon. But… should we? This ain’t just “cool tech.” It’s mind-altering, soul-questioning, upgrade-or-get-left-behind territory. I mean duh its crazy and insane...but... Who gets to access this first? (Spoiler: rich people. right!!) Can we even ethically chip a newborn? And bruh… what if someone hacks your kid’s thoughts? Wang might be planning Neuralink baby showers, but the rest of us are still stuck trying to uninstall toddler YouTube. The Wildest Part? Pfft man...He’s serious. The guy building the tools that train AI on billions of data points just casually said he wants his future child born ready to interface with the machine. Not hold it. Not learn it. Merge with it. So yeah. Forget baby bottles. The next-gen kids might come with USB-C ports. Welcome to parenting 2.0. Where bedtime stories are uploaded. And first steps might be logged in terabytes. The future isn’t knocking. It’s gestating. So guys, the real question is now...would you Neuralink your baby?
