Neuralink, the neurotechnology company founded by Elon Musk, has successfully operated on its first patient, Noland Arbaugh, enabling him to control computers remotely using a brain chip. Following this initial surgery, another patient, Alex, also received the Neuralink implant and experienced a smooth recovery.
I am increasingly convinced that @Neuralink should prioritize making an implant that can eliminate back & neck pain.
Would greatly improve people’s happiness while awake, as well as enhance quality of sleep.
