Why not? Monkeys already control most of our sports. Let them have the robots too.

damnit, i just signed in to post this!

at least if monkeys are controlling the robots instead of computer chips, there might be a sense of compassion for us humans, right? right???

either that, or they'll just be able to throw their shit farther, faster and harder.

VIDEOS- (notice how they block the camera from showing the actual brain interface. You can make out wires a bit, but I bet it's the kind of thing animal activists would shit a carrot over)
