Elon Musk’s neurotech startup Neuralink uses a surgical robot to implant a chip into the brain that he claims will one day provide wearers with “enhanced abilities” like greater reasoning ...
A thought recording and reproduction device refers to any machine which is able to both directly record and reproduce, via a brain-computer interface, the thoughts, emotions, dreams or other neural/cognitive events of a subject for that or other subjects to experience. While currently residing within mostly fictional displays of the capacity of ...
Neuralink Corp. [4] is an American neurotechnology company that has developed, as of 2024, implantable brain–computer interfaces (BCIs). It was founded by Elon Musk and a team of eight scientists and engineers (Max Hodak, Benjamin Rapoport, Dongjin Seo, Paul Merolla, Philip Sabes, Tim Gardner, Tim Hanson, and Vanessa Tolosa).
The long term goal, according to Neuralink, is to give patients the ability to control entire devices with their thoughts. SEE MORE: Elon Musk's Neuralink implants first device in human brain.
Many neuroscientists believe that the human mind is largely an emergent property of the information processing of its neuronal network. [9]Neuroscientists have stated that important functions performed by the mind, such as learning, memory, and consciousness, are due to purely physical and electrochemical processes in the brain and are governed by applicable laws.
Neuralink came under fire in 2022 for its treatment of monkeys during testing. The company acknowledged that a monkey died during an attempt to get the animal to play a video game like “Pong.”
Noland Arbaugh (born 1993 or 1994) is an American quadriplegic known for being the first human recipient of Neuralink's brain-computer interface (BCI) implant. [1] He gained attention for his use of the device to regain digital autonomy after a spinal cord injury left him paralyzed.
According to a Wall Street Journal report, Musk's latest project is called Neuralink and its goal is to explore technology that can make direct connections between a human brain and a computer.
