The co-founder of Elon Musk’s firm Neuralink says they have the technology to build a real-life version of “Jurassic Park.”
“We could probably build Jurassic Park if we wanted to,” Max Hodak tweeted Saturday. “Wouldn’t be genetically authentic dinosaurs but [shrugging emoji]. Maybe 15 years of breeding + engineering to get super exotic novel species.”
Hodak didn’t elaborate on how his neurotechnology company might be able to revive the long-extinct prehistoric beasts but he later championed the idea, claiming it could increase biodiversity.
“Biodiversity (antifragility) is definitely valuable; conservation is important and makes sense,” Hodak tweeted. “But why do we stop there? Why don’t we more intentionally try to generate novel diversity?”

Meanwhile, last summer, Neuralink unveiled a working prototype of a brain-implant device that founders believe can cure everything from blindness to quadriplegia.
Musk showed off an early version of the gadget that he implanted in a pig and later said human trials could begin as soon as 2021.

He literally says right above that it would be just genetic engineering of current animals.
Journalists are pathetic.

But do they have the sense not to?

They are cloning animals right now and have been for years.
This seems the next logical step.
