Elon Musk is developing an implant which he claims will cure “brain problems” such as anxiety, depression, paralysis etc.

In this video, he talks about the device and presents Three Little Pigs in various stages of the implant.

(Pfft, and people are worried about Bill Gates implanting things!)

No one is implanting their brain problems in me.

But William Gates III Is The Devil And Musk Makes Our Politicians Look Good ¡¡¡

Is this suitable for curing paraplegia?

“Replaces a piece of skull” OK.

How long has this been a staple of science fiction?
(Checks web) The Terminal Man (1972) by Michael Crichton.

Want a job? Chip design, robotics, mad scientist, etc.

do not want

watching that, quite good, some in the chat replay don’t do much justice to the subject

He stopped short of saying that. I wonder if it’s possible to implant two devices, one in the brain and one after the spinal disruption, and get them to send electrical messages to each other.

> Ian Burkhart, a 23-year-old quadriplegic from Dublin, Ohio, is the first patient to use Neurobridge, an electronic neural bypass for spinal cord injuries that reconnects the brain directly to muscles, allowing voluntary and functional control of a paralyzed limb. Burkhart is the first of a potential five participants in a clinical study.

> The Neurobridge technology combines algorithms that learn and decode the user’s brain activity and a high-definition muscle stimulation sleeve that translates neural impulses from the brain and transmits new signals to the paralyzed limb. In this case, Ian’s brain signals bypass his injured spinal cord and move his hand, hence the name Neurobridge.

Thanks. Looks like it can be done. Neurobridge rather than Neuralink.

Hippocampus, I’m not sure. But it can have access to my frontal cortex any time it likes.

For quadriplegia you would want it to access your hippocampus.

are you sure?

Good, you spotted my deliberate error ;-)

One thing going for him is i expect there will be many willing fanbois to get chipped regardless of the consequences.
