First Neuralink patient to be able to control a computer mouse with his mind

Elon Musk has announced the successful results of Neuralink, the first transplantation of a brain chip into a human.

During an audio chat on the Spaces platform, Musk revealed some details about the first patient to receive the implant from the company. According to Musk, the patient can control a computer mouse just by thinking.

It is known that the person has fully recovered, and there are no negative consequences of the procedure. Musk also shared that the Neuralink team is working to expand the possibilities of control through thinking, in particular, to increase the number of functions that can be controlled.

Information about the first Neuralink patient is currently limited. The prominent entrepreneur previously noted that the company was looking for volunteers, including people with disabilities, to participate in the programme.
