Rapper Lil Uzi Vert and musician Grimes discussed getting “brain chips” implanted on Twitter.

This interaction followed Elon Musk’s discussion on Clubhouse about his new startup, Neuralink. The new company recently completed a project where they successfully implanted a computer chip in a monkey’s brain. This experiment is part of a larger project to implant computer chips in human brains.

The interaction between Vert and Grimes started after Vert tweeted, “Neuralink.” Grimes responded with “Let’s get brain chips” and Vert tweeted back, “I’m ready when we doing it.”

Grimes then said, “Let’s aim for chips by 2022. it’s experimental surgery but if it succeeds we’ll have the knowledge of the Gods haha.” Vert responded saying, “Okay !!! I will call u for more detail.”

Vert was recently in the news for having a $24 million pink diamond implanted on his forehead.
