The whole article is bilge. These researchers don't have a clue what these signals mean. All they're doing is re-routing around non-functional nerve fibers.

I get so tired of all this idolatry to science. These people don't have a clue what the mind is.

Exactly. Biology is still stuck in Newtonian physics and Darwinian thought. The cutting edge of physics is exploring consciousness as the basis of the physical world. So, if they think they think the brain is where a person’s personality resides and that they can encode memories on a chip, they will not succeed. (Thankfully!)

I hear you, brother. Landing mobile laboratories on Mars should be credited to Phrenology, the Hubble Space Telescope to astrology, the cure for polio to burning ear candles, and the internet to the laying on of hands. It’s amazing how most people can’t see that.
