Elon Musk’s Neuralink has received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to begin human trials of its brain implant technology. The company plans to start by testing the device in people with severe spinal cord injuries, who could use it to control prosthetic limbs or other devices with their thoughts.
Neuralink’s device is a small, coin-sized chip that is implanted into the brain. It contains thousands of electrodes that can record and stimulate brain activity. The company says the device could be used to treat a variety of conditions, including paralysis, blindness, and Alzheimer’s disease.
Musk has said that Neuralink’s ultimate goal is to create a “symbiosis” between humans and machines. He envisions a future where people can use their thoughts to control computers, cars, and other devices.
