Elon Musk's 'successful' brain implant: 1) 85% of wires detached (getting worse all the time) 2) Patient asked if implant can be fixed, replaced, or just REMOVED. NeuraLink declined.
He's stuck with a non-functional implant. Moving on to victim #2. popsci.com/health/neurali…
Elon Musk's update on Neuralink's roadmap at VivaTech:
- Telepathy: Use a phone or computer by thinking - Blindsight: Recover sight even if you lost both eyes - High bandwidth interface to mitigate AI risk - Potentially: Reanimate the body x.com/elon_docs/stat…
'Neuralink will help a lot of people with brain and spine injuries. The first part is Telepathy, which enables you to use your phone or computer just by thinking.
The next product is BlindSight which will enable people who have lost both eyes or have no eye sight.' - Elon Musk
Noland Arbaugh became the first human patient to receive the Neuralink device. The 30-year-old quadriplegic man who opted to become the first human to receive Elon Musk's Neuralink brain implant chip called 'The Link' revealed how the pioneering technology has changed his life.
Neuralink is accepting applications for the second participant.
Elon Musk has confirmed another window for participant to apply for the Telepathy cybernetic brain implant is open, this will allow you to control your Phone and Computer just by thinking.
