    Elon Musk says Neuralink patient can control a computer mouse just by thinking

    Neuralink founder and billionaire, Elon Musk says the patient implanted with Neuralink’s brain technology can now control a computer mouse just by thinking.

    He made this known in a Spaces event on social media platform X; “Progress is good, and the patient seems to have made a full recovery, with no ill effects that we are aware of. Patient is able to move a mouse around the screen by just thinking.” He added that Neuralink was now trying to get as many mouse button clicks as possible from the patient.

    In January this year, the neurotech startup, successfully implanted its device in a human being. The objective of the implant is to empower individuals experiencing severe paralysis to command external technology solely through neural signals.

    Established in 2016 by a team of professionals, including Elon Musk, Max Hodak, Ben Rapoport, Dongjin Seo, Paul Merolla, Philip Sabes, Tim Gardner, Tim Hanson, and Vanessa Tolosa, Neuralink is dedicated to the development of an implantable brain chip. This innovative technology facilitates the simultaneous recording and stimulation of brain activity, drawing on the team’s expertise in neuroscience, biochemistry, and robotics. Neuralink’s primary focus is on unlocking the chip’s potential for various medical applications, particularly in addressing severe spinal cord injuries and neurological disorders.

    The computer chip comprises a compact device, electrode-laced wires, and a robot designed to delicately carve out a portion of an individual’s skull for the implantation process into the brain.

    Elon Musk’s Neuralink received the approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to commence human clinical trials in May 2023
