Neuralink, founded by Elon Musk in 2016, has developed a revolutionary brain-computer interface (BCI) technology. The company's flagship product, the N1 Implant, is fully implantable and virtually invisible, allowing individuals to control devices with their thoughts. The device, powered by a wireless battery, records neural activity through 1024 electrodes, surpassing existing technologies. While initially targeting paralysis, Neuralink's vision extends to broad applications, including restoring autonomy for various medical needs. Despite ethical concerns and risks associated with brain surgery, including privacy and surveillance issues, Neuralink has begun human trials after FDA approval. While hailed for its potential to revolutionize healthcare, scientists voice concerns about transparency, safety, and ethical oversight. Nonetheless, the technology holds promise for restoring mobility, vision, and functionality for individuals with disabilities and neurological conditions, offering a glimpse into a future where humans may interact with technology on a neural level.
