Elon Musk's Neuralink Advances Towards Widespread Brain-Computer Interface Implants, Targets High Single-Digit Patients This Year
Jul 10, 2024, 07:21 PM
Elon Musk's Neuralink is progressing towards implanting its brain-computer interface devices in more human patients, with the goal of reaching thousands within a few years. The company aims to make the implantation process as quick and automated as LASIK eye surgery. Neuralink's device is designed to minimize brain damage and patient burden, potentially allowing individuals to live normal lives. The technology promises to enable communication via brain signals, control devices, and even restore eyesight to the blind. Musk envisions Neuralink helping mitigate the risks of AI by fostering a symbiosis between human and digital intelligence. Neuralink aims to have a high single-digit number of patients this year, pending regulatory approvals, and is taking risk mitigation measures with the brain implant.
