Elon Musk’s Neuralink brain implant: New era of "Brain-Computer Interface" (BCI) technology | Engadget

A Chinese team, led by Nankai University, announced a significant breakthrough in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology: the world's 1st interventional human BCI experiment on a human patient. This less-invasive procedure helped a 67-year-old male patient, suffering from left-side paralysis for six months due to a cerebral infarction, regain significant limb function. Unlike the invasive skull-opening surgery used by Elon Musk's Neuralink last year, this pioneering technique involves implant

Elon Musk's Neuralink just implanted a chip in a monkey's brain and demonstrated it playing video games with its mind. The science behind that could be a game-changer. | CNET
