Important Takeaways:
- The first human patient implanted with a brain-chip from Neuralink appears to have fully recovered and is able to control a computer mouse using their thoughts, the startup’s founder, Elon Musk, said late on Monday.
- “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,” Musk said in a Spaces event on the social media platform X.
- The firm successfully implanted a chip on its first human patient last month, after receiving approval for human trial recruitment in September.
- The study uses a robot to surgically place a brain-computer interface implant in a region of the brain that controls the intention to move, Neuralink has said, adding that the initial goal was to enable people to control a computer cursor or keyboard using their thoughts.
- Musk has grand ambitions for Neuralink, saying it would facilitate speedy surgical insertions of its chip devices to treat conditions like obesity, autism, depression and schizophrenia.

Important Takeaways:
- Musk’s ‘brain chip’ could be tested on humans in 6 months
- Billionaire Elon Musk has said that a wireless ‘brain chip’ developed by his company Neuralink could begin human clinical trials in six months.
- The Neuralink device will first target restoring vision and enabling movement of muscles in people who cannot do so, Musk said.
- Most recently, Neuralink has been conducting tests on animals as it seeks approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to begin clinical trials in people.
- He wants to develop a chip that would allow the brain to control complex electronic devices and eventually allow people with paralysis to regain motor function and treat brain diseases such as Parkinson’s, dementia and Alzheimer’s. He also wants to meld the brain with artificial intelligence.
