Eternal founder Deepinder Goyal addressed public criticism from Indian doctors over Temple, his brain-monitoring wearable project. Goyal defended the device on X, calling it an ambitious initiative backed by $30 million in total investment, including $20 million of his personal capital. He clarified that Temple offers a 14-day no-questions-asked return policy and that the first 10,000 customers will receive lifetime free subscriptions. Responding to medical influencers who labeled the project unscientific, Goyal insisted that the team conducted rigorous research and that user performance will ultimately determine the venture's viability and success.
