The first human patient for Neuralink implanted with a brain chip appears to have made a ‘full recovery,’ according to Elon Musk.
“Progress is good and the patient seems to have made a full recovery, with neural effects that we are aware of,” Musk said in a Spaces event on X, according to the Daily Mail.
“Patient is able to move a mouse around the screen by just thinking,” he reportedly added.

I think by “mouse” he means “cursor.”
Pretty remarkable if true. Almost like magic.
Resistance is futile.
I guess this might be good if you were paralyzed or had severe carpal tunnel or something.
I’ll pass though, thanks.
For quadraplegic and otherwise severely disabled people, this device will be a boost to their quality of life.
A huge boost.
“Resistance is futile.”
yes ... it’s a brave new world
It seems like it’s spinning faster and faster everyday.
I have to hold on tighter and tighter.
AI .... brain implants .... eating bugs ..
what’s not to like?
No. He means telepathy.
Something like this is very good, but I’m concerned about the potential to reprogram the human mind. I wouldn’t want to end up being a servant without a will.
Yes of course.
That’s today’s news.
In tomorrow’s news it will help:
*Impotent men
*Frigid women
*Obese people lose weight
*Blind to see
*Deaf to hear
*Bald people grow hair
*Chronic fatigue
*Comatose wake up
*Cure cancer
What’s the “catch”?
There always is one.
Not a good thing, what can generate an output can eventually be made to receive and input.
Me: "I think by 'mouse' he means 'cursor.'”
You: "No. He means telepathy."
Try rereading what I said. "Move a mouse around the screen" is an obvious reference to a computer screen.
Democrats can control the temperature of earth, with their thoughts.
It was joke.
It would be awesome if he was actually moving a mouse or putting pots and pans on the stove to make dinner or float pajamas out of the closet.
this will be great for the woman of the house...who most of the time is controlled by the mouse.
Sorry. I didn’t catch it. I should have.
First day of moving places in the computer with his mind:
Make a cyberattack shutdown of major phone networks.
Shut down major pharmacies.
Shut down access to banking.
Shut down major cities’ water supply and sewage treatment centers.
Shut down power grid section by section in chain reaction.
Musk actually said: “and is able to control a computer mouse using their thoughts,”
Just a guess but I think he is hooked up to a modified mouse or a console that interfaces..
Great!
