Anything that's being shown has already been done by government black ops a long time ago. This is basically just declassification. The people in power have no ethics or morality that would hold them back, especially after MKUltra stuff which was decades ago.
Given they've chucked rat brains into little brain-in-a-jar vehicles (highly informative: The rats slowly go insane and then quickly die), anything involving minor computer hook-ups is FAR on the side of "been done before". Scientists have moved one person's arm using another person's brain, just by crossing the signals. A Raspberry Pi board reinterpreting visual stimuli is pretty basic.
On the OTHER hand, with AI learning, Vtuber tech, optical implants, and a tactile/haptic override at the brain stem, it is soon 100% possible for a person to perceive a catgirl as existing IRL, and interact with her. So in a way, Elon is now making his promise of making catgirls come true.
Yes, that is the stuff they are doing publicly. How many secret labs do you think exist? We really don't know, but that is where any real experimentation is being done. We all know that very little actual science happens in the Universities. After something has proven to be effective in a black lab they would greenlight people to research "clean" versions of it in public.
