Neuralink's Second Implant Success: Alex Plays Games Using Brain, No Thread Retraction
Aug 21, 2024, 09:55 PM
Elon Musk's Neuralink has successfully completed a second trial implant with a patient named Alex. The implant allows Alex to control digital devices using his brain, demonstrated by his ability to play Counter-Strike 2 and use CAD software without traditional peripherals. Alex designed a custom mount for his Neuralink charger using Fusion 360, which was 3D printed and integrated into his setup. Musk stated that Neuralink aims to have a high single-digit number of patients this year, pending regulatory approvals, with plans to expand to thousands in the future. The company also announced its next product, 'Blindsight,' intended to restore eyesight to blind individuals. The second trial implant went well, with no thread retraction issue reported.
