Brain Chip is installed Successfully

 

====================

The very First Brain Chip has been implanted 

==============================================================

The wireless brain chip developed by billionaire tech investor Elon Musk's business, Neuralink, has been successfully implanted in a human for the first time.

He claims that encouraging neuron spikes or nerve impulses have been seen in the patient's brain following the chip's implantation, and the patient is also healing quickly based on the preliminary data.

Numerous rival businesses had already tried with implanting similar devices into patients' brains prior to Neuralink.

Regarding this, the US Federal Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and Neuralink have been contacted by the BBC.

The FDA approved Elon Musk's business to test the brain chip on humans in May of last year.

This resulted in a six-year study where 64 minuscule threads were surgically inserted into the area of the brain responsible for motor control.

According to Neuralink, the implant is run by a wirelessly rechargeable battery. According to the business, the threads wirelessly transfer brain signals to the experimental implant and then to an app. The messages regarding the concerned person's preferred movement are decoded by this app.

Elon Musk announced that the Neuralink device will be known as telepathy on the social networking site X (Twitter), which he also controls.

It is said that a telepathic user will be able to operate a computer or phone with just their thoughts. Additionally, any device may be managed via this computer or phone.

The initial target audience for this gadget will be those with physical disabilities.

In the past, Neurallink has faced criticism. In December 2022, Reuters revealed that the corporation conducted experiments on animals, including lambs, monkeys, and pigs, which led to the deaths of about 1,500 of them.

The US Department of Agriculture's chief announced in July 2023 that the corporation had no infractions of regulations pertaining to animal research.

But the agency is conducting a different probe at the moment. The FDA approved Musk's company's request to test the chip on people in May 2023.

What are the abilities of Neuralink?

Neuralink aims to help people with paralysis communicate by allowing them to remotely control devices using brain activity. In the future, Neuralink may help enhance user memory and cognitive abilities, restore a user's motor, sensory and visual functions as well as treat neurological disorders.
