The brain is extremely receptive to input so in theory the technology sounds easy to develop, but what exactly is the reason this still hasn’t been done?

A lot of technologies that sound cool in theory suffer from the fact that no one really wants them in practice. We could, for instance, have had flying cars as far back as the 50s, but what with most people’s atavistic fear of heights, the difficulties in setting up highways with no geographical delineators, and the issue of any accidents raining death on innocents below, they were never developed.
A human brain interface suffers from this, too. Most people don’t really want to undergo invasive brlain surgery, risk infection in the brain, make their mind hackable, etc. It’s cool to imagine in a sci-fi scenario, but in practice the benefits aren’t worth the trouble.
