ELON: NEURALINK COULD HELP SOLVING SPINAL CORD INJURIES “What would it take to really solve spinal cord injuries? We already know how to do this. Implant electrodes into the motor cortex of the brain and then bypass the severed section of the spine and have effectively local microcontrollers near the muscle groups. It could restore full limb functionality. It's very exciting what can be done here.” Source: Axios, November 2018

ELON: IF YOU CAN’T OUTSMART AI, JOIN IT - WITH NEURALINK “Neuralink, at first, will solve a lot of brain-related diseases. It could be anything from autism, schizophrenia, or memory loss. Everyone experiences memory loss at a certain point in age. There’s a tremendous amount of good that Neuralink can do in solving critical damage to the brain or the spinal cord. There’s a lot that can be done to improve the quality of life of individuals. Then ultimately, it’s intended to address the existential risk associated with digital superintelligence. We will not be able to be smarter than a digital supercomputer. Therefore, if you cannot beat them, join them.” Source: Elon Musk, Lex Fridman Podcast, November 12, 2019

Elon Musk: As we advance the Neuralink devices, you should be able to actually have full body control and sensors from an Optimus robot So you could basically inhibit an Optimus robot. It's not just the hand, but the whole thing. So you could like basically mentally remote into an Optimus robot and be kind of cool. The future is gonna be weird, but pretty cool And then another thing that could be done also is like for people that have say lost a limb, lost an arm or leg or something like that, then we think in the future we'll be able to attach an Optimus arm or legs and so you kind of like I remember that scene from a Star Wars where Luke Skywalker gets his hand, you know, chopped off with a lightsaber and he gets kind of a robot hand And I think that's the kind of thing that we'll be able to do in the future working with Neuralink and Tesla. So it goes far beyond just operating a robot hand, but replacing limbs and having kind of a whole body robot experience. And then I think another thing that will be possible like I think it's very likely in the future is to be able to bridge the where the damaged neurons So you can take the signal from the brain and and transmit that signal past where the neurons are damaged or strained to the rest of the body, so you could reanimate the body. So that if you have a Neuralink implant in the brain and then one in the spinal cord, then you can actually bridge the signals and you could walk again and have full body functionality Obviously that's what people would prefer. To be clear, we realize that would be the preferred outcome. And so that even if you have a broken neck, you could still we believe I'm actually at this point I'd say fairly confident that at some point in the future we'll be able to restore full body functionality

WOW: The first Neuralink patient just spoke out—humbled by Elon Musk and his technology — “I just can’t even put it into words.” This is truly incredible. Noland Arbaugh was paralyzed after a spinal cord injury. Then he got a Neuralink brain implant (BCI) and regained control of his life. Now he’s speaking from experience about what Elon Musk and his team have made possible: “It’s an incredible privilege to be a part of this, and have somebody like Elon Musk—one of the most powerful men in the world—so involved, so interested in affecting my life and people with disabilities right now.” “I just can’t even put it into words.” And he had this to say about the Neuralink team: “The guys and gals at Neuralink, they are the hardest workers that I’ve ever met in my life and they have such passion for helping people.”

ELON: BRAIN-CONTROLLED ROBOT LEGS ARE ON THE WAY "What we can do is use a Neuralink implant that takes signals from the motor cortex of the brain and also receives signals from the somatosensory cortex. Then give someone who’s lost their legs Optimus' legs. And so you’d be, I mean, we’re really getting like The 6 Million Dollar Man here, from back in the day. And we can actually give someone superhuman cyborg capabilities, like The 6 Million Dollar Man, for less than $6M, even in this day and age. I mean, $6M back then was a fortune. These days, it’s like nothing. But for much less than that, I mean, for something that would be reasonably affordable, it might be more like a $60,000-type thing. And you can take signals from Neuralink, the mind, that would be transmitting to the legs, and transmit those to the attached Optimus robot legs. And you would actually be able to run faster than a human. Just like The Six Million Dollar Man." Source: Elon Musk, Baron Capital, Ron Baron, Neuralink

Elon Musk on Neuralink's long-term goal: “In the short term, Neuralink is just about solving brain injuries and spinal injuries, that kind of thing. So, to be clear, for many years, Neuralink products will just be helpful to someone who has lost the use of their arms or arms and legs or who has a traumatic brain injury of some kind... There's a long-term mitigation to artificial intelligence, which is that we could effectively merge with artificial intelligence by improving the speed of interaction between our cortex and our tertiary layer, which is already silicon. We're already sort of a three-level intelligence creature.”

Elon Musk: The ultimate purpose of Neuralink is to reduce the existential risk of digital superintelligence by giving humans a way to merge with AI. “There's, I think, a tremendous amount of good that Neuralink can do in solving critical damage to the brain or the spinal cord. There's a lot that can be done to improve quality of life of individuals, and those will be steps along the way. And then ultimately, it's intended to address the risk, the existential risk associated with digital superintelligence. Like, we will not be able to be smarter than a digital supercomputer. So therefore, if you cannot beat them, join them. And at least we want to have that option. [...] It's important that Neuralink solve this problem sooner rather than later, because the point at which we have digital superintelligence, that's when we pass singularity, and things become just very uncertain. It doesn't mean that they're necessarily bad or good, but the point at which we pass singularity, things become extremely unstable. So we want to have a human brain interface before the singularity, or at least not long after it, to minimize existential risk for humanity and consciousness as we know it.” Lex Fridman Podcast, November 12, 2019

Elon Musk Elon Musk on Neuralink: “So, when I emphasized the purpose of Neuralink, like what do we, what's our goal, our goal is to solve important spine and brain problems with a seamlessly implanted device. So, you wanna have a device that you can basically put in your head and feel and look totally normal, but it solves some important problem in your brain or spine. And the reality is that almost everyone, over time, will develop brain and spine problems. These range from minor to very severe, but if you live long enough, everyone's gonna basically have some kind of neurological disorder, from memory loss to brain damage. But the thing that's important to appreciate is that an implantable device can actually solve these problems. I think a lot of people don't quite realise that, but all of your senses, your sight, hearing, feeling, pain, these are all electrical signals sent by neurons to your brain.”

ELON: I ALWAYS ASK THE SAME QUESTIONS WHEN HIRING SOMEONE “When I interview somebody, my interview question is always the same - tell me the story of your life and the decisions that you made along the way and why you made them. And then also tell me about some of the most difficult problems you worked on and how you solved them. That question, I think, is very important, because the people that really solved the problem, they know exactly how they solved it - they know the little details. And the people that pretended to solve the problem, they can maybe go one level and then they get stuck.” Source: Elon Musk

Elon Musk: Neuralink will be a jet airplane for neurosurgeons. “I think this is going to be an incredibly powerful tool for neurosurgeons for helping to fix brain-related issues. If it was a weapon situation, it might be like the difference between bows and arrows and jet airplanes. A big difference, in a positive, constructive way. One can only do as well as the tools that one is given. By essentially giving neurosurgeons a much more sophisticated, powerful tool like the Neuralink device, you could really help a lot of people.” Interview at CNS, October 2024

ELON: FULL BODY REANIMATION MAY BE POSSIBLE WITH NEURALINK “We think it’s possible to create a neural shunt. If you’ve got a Neuralink in your skull connected to your brain's motor cortex, you could put another Neuralink in your spinal cord, past the point where the nerves are broken. It would essentially act like a wireless bridge. Neurons are kind of like wires, so if you’ve got a bunch of broken wires, this would be a wireless bridge from your brain to where the neurons are still alive. This could allow for full-body reanimation.” Elon x Full Send Pod: Neuralink capabilities x milestones - Full Send Podcast Aug 4th 2024

"What is P vs NP and how does it relate to human knowledge?" Avi Wigderson (Turing Award & Abel Prize winner): "In a very basic way, all the problems we want to solve are really NP problems. A subset of it is the problems we can solve. So the question of P versus NP is whether we can solve all the problems we want to solve, whether we can know everything we want to know. This is basically about the limits of our knowledge. You can think there is no limit to what we may want to know but I claim that essentially in any human endeavor, what people are searching for have the property that when a solution is found, it is easily recognized. NP are all problems that we can honestly say we really want to solve and P are those that we can solve. Whether they are equal is just the very fact that a solution can be easily recognized would imply that it can be efficiently found. That means that we can know everything we ever want to know, it's a fundamental question about human knowledge."

If you say philanthropy is love of humanity, they are philanthropy. Tesla is accelerating sustainable energy; this is philanthropy. SpaceX is trying to ensure the long-term survival of humanity as a multiplanet species; this is the love of humanity.

The Boring Company is trying to solve traffic, which is hell for most people, that also is a love of humanity.

ELON: NEURALINK - NOT A STETHOSCOPE ON A FACTORY WALL, BUT AN OBSERVER FROM WITHIN “The work in Neuralink will shed a lot of insight into how the brain and the mind work. The data we have regarding how the brain works is very limited. We’ve got fMRI. That’s like putting a stethoscope on the outside of a factory wall and moving it all over the wall. You can hear the sounds, but you don’t know what the machines are really doing. To really know what’s going on in the brain, you need high-precision sensors - and then you want stimulus and response.

🚨 Elon Musk on Neuralink: "Neuralink is building brain computer interfaces. The first part is called telepathy, allows someone who has lost the use of their body to control a computer or a phone just by thinking. In fact, you can interact with a number of people who've done this online. Right now, they're on on the 𝕏 platform, you can DM them, I think, and they'll reply by thinking. Then there's a second device, very similar to the first one, called BLINDSIGHT, which will enable people who are blind to see, including people who have been blind from birth. It'll interface directly with the visual cortex in the brain. And hopefully we'll be able to do the first blind site implant in a human within the next 12 months, I'd say I'm quite confident that we can do that. And then I also think it's quite likely, if not close to certain, that we'll be able to enable somebody who's has a severed spinal column to walk again, and by taking the signals from the brain, bridging them over the severed connection in the spine and re energizing the nerves past the point that's broken, like you can just think of it like some wires got broken, and if you can bridge the signals, your body will work again."
