Ridgewood N J, Elon Musk has reported that the first human recipient of a Neuralink implant is recovering well, marking a significant milestone in the brain-computer interface industry. Neuralink’s implants, which use ultra-fine electrodes, aim to aid individuals with traumatic injuries, with future goals extending to addressing hearing and vision loss and even facilitating a merger between humans and artificial intelligence. Musk envisions the initial application, called Telepathy, allowing users to control devices through thought, benefiting those who have lost limb functionality.

The FDA approved Neuralink for human clinical trials in May 2023, and the company has begun recruiting candidates, showcasing progress in commercializing its technology, with a reported valuation of around $5 billion. While Musk’s multitasking capabilities draw attention, Neuralink faces competition from non-publicly traded firms like Synchron, Onward, Precision Neuroscience, and Blackrock Neurotech. Neuralink’s advantage lies in its deeper brain penetration and higher electrode precision, targeting individual neurons.
