Back in January, I was writing that Musk’s Neuralink project has taken a significant leap forward as the tech billionaire announced that the startup has successfully implanted a brain chip into a human subject for the first time.
Although Musk has not disclosed much detail, he did mention that the recipient is “recovering well”. The announcement was made on X (previously known as Twitter).
“Initial results show promising neuron spike detection,” Musk wrote on the social media platform that he purchased in 2022.
