A Bold Vision
In recent years, artificial intelligence has transformed how we work, communicate, and even create. But what if the next big leap wasn’t just smarter machines — what if it was smarter humans?
That’s the vision behind Neuralink, the brain–computer interface (BCI) company founded by Elon Musk. Its mission is nothing short of revolutionary: to connect the human brain directly with computers.
How Does It Work?
Neuralink is developing ultra-thin, flexible threads that can be implanted into the brain. These threads connect to a small chip that sits just under the skull.
FDA approval
FDA approval for Neuralink’s first human clinical trial (PRIME study). Recruitment begins for patients with paralysis
First Human Patient
Neuralink successfully implants the first human patient, Noland Arbaugh, demonstrating thought-controlled cursor movement and device interaction.
Safety, Ethics, and Regulations
Early human trials continue, addressing challenges such as safety, ethics, and regulatory approvals.
Future Vision
The future vision is for brain-computer interfaces to become as common as wearable health devices, widely used for medical and potentially cognitive enhancement purposes.
