Elon Musk: Humans Must "Achieve Symbiosis With Machines"

Elon Musk has been floating some very forward facing, futurist tech ideas lately such as how we'll make government on Mars, why we're all living in a simulation like The Matrix, and how he plans to launch a SpaceX rocket at the unprecedented rate of once every two weeks. But his thoughts on something called "neural lace" have to be the most far out. "Creating a neural lace is the thing that really matters for humanity to achieve symbiosis with machines," Musk tweeted late Friday night, which followed statements made earlier in the week on the topic at Recode's Code Conference in Rancho Palos Verdes, California. So what is Musk saying when he talks about a neural lace? In the most basic sense, it's a mesh of electronic fibers that you would place on your head to improve human performance.
