This looks like BS. I'm not saying that it is, but the monkey isn't real, the robotics footage is looped and shows feet never making solid contact with the ground, this may as well be fake as the stupid monkey.
It's a small brain implant, it's nothing that we don't already put into humans to treat disorders. This is highly beneficial for everyone, and it's not like we don't already use people in these types of investigations.
Hmmm, I wonder why they went through the work to create a computer animation for the monkey, although they had the real one right there. Might it be because normal humans would be disgusted by how they treated the animal? Hmmmm.
I think that it is a fake)))

Most likely they didn't want to show what they did to the monkeys (brain implants) which wouldn't look too good on the news
