And that Elon Musk is going that cyborg tech.

On a more serious note did anyone read the article

The psychologists implanted false memories in 52 subjects with a median age of 23, thanks to critical assistance from the subjects’ parents.

The parents identified events that had and had not happened to their kids — and generated two events that were plausible but had not happened. The researchers then asked the test subjects to recall each event, true or not, including details like who was present and when it happened.

They met multiple times; by the third session, most participants at least believed the false events had happened. More than half had developed actual false memories of them.

There is not enough info here and it only raises more questions. Did the parents relay the stories to their kids or to the researchers? How exactly was the 'false memory' installed. Seems to me they had the parents tell their kids a few stories of events that happened to them and their kids believed them. When it comes to the stories how old were the subjects told they were when the event unfolded?

I am not convinced that they can do shit but it makes for a catchy headline.
