Brain-computer/machine interfaces are really interesting when treating conditions like paralysis or Parkinson's disease, and to a certain extent severe psychiatric conditions if you count deep brain stimulation for e.g. severe OCD. I don't think we'll be anywhere near sending detailed multisensory content like ads into people's brains for a long time though. That's so far outside the scope of what brain stimulation can do right now, it's really just scifi.

I was on the verge of abandoning reddit before when I could only use RIF to browse logged out, but now that it's gone for good...goodbye, reddit. I wonder if it'll affect things like reddit traffic at all. Time will tell, I suppose.

Disappointing but not surprising. The world is full of racial bias, and people don't do a good job at all addressing this in their training data. If bias is what you're showing the model, that's exactly what it'll learn, too.
