i don't think people realize what just happened with brain implants in china for the first time in history, a brain implant has been approved for commercial sale. you can actually buy one. it's called neo. costs around $15,000. the question everyone asks first: does it actually work? here's... what the implant does. a coin-sized chip gets placed on the surface of the brain, right over the area that controls movement. when a paralyzed patient imagines moving their hand, the chip reads that signal, sends it to a computer, and the computer drives a mechanical glove that moves for them picking up objects, gripping utensils, handling daily tasks. all from thought alone. the whole surgery takes an hour and 40 minutes. surgeons thin the skull, open a small window, and place two electrodes directly on the surface of the brain. then they close it up, patients go home within a week. 32 patients with spinal cord injuries were implanted in a clinical trial led by huashan hospital > ALL 32 regained the ability to grab objects through the glove. > 100% improvement rate. > zero adverse side effects. no other brain implant company on earth has received approval to sell their device commercially. elon's neuralink is still in clinical trials. side effects from their more invasive approach have stalled any path to regulatory clearance. china is the only country where you can buy a brain implant right now. this is by design. months before the approval, china published a national policy document with 17 steps to dominate the brain implant industry within 5 years. they want brain-reading devices to be as common as hearing aids. headbands, visors, earpieces that pick up brain signals... all mass-produced for consumers. and the government is coordinating the whole thing. funding the research, building the manufacturing, clearing the regulatory path, all at once. the West is moving painfully slow in comparison...still running controlled trials one patient group at a time. china already has a commercial product, a 72-year-old moving his leg on state television, and a national playbook to own the entire category.show more

🚨 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."

🇺🇸 ELON: HUMAN BRAIN IMPLANTS ARE NOW FULLY FUNCTIONAL "We're going to solve a lot of brain issues, where the brain gets injured or damaged in some way, or didn’t develop quite the right way. What we’re creating with Neuralink is a generalized input-output technology for the brain, a way to get information into or out of the brain, without damaging it or causing negative side effects. This is a very hard problem. Every single one of our implants in humans is working, and working quite well. You’ll get to hear from some of the people who’ve received the implants, in their own words." Source: Neuralink

NEURALINK GIVES ALS PATIENT A VOICE LIKE NEVER BEFORE Imagine being stuck in your own head with a thousand thoughts but no way to say them. That was Brad G. Smith’s life with ALS until Neuralink stepped in with a chip that reads his brain signals. Before this brain implant, Smith had to rely on eye-tracking software that only worked in the dark. He joked it turned him into Batman without the gadgets. Now, he can control a computer cursor and talk to his family even in bright daylight. The Neuralink implant uses a thousand tiny wires that pick up signals from his brain and send them to a MacBook Pro. At first, they tried linking it to his hand movements but that was a flop. Turns out his tongue was the star of the show and clenching his jaw worked as a click. Smith says he does not even think about it anymore. His brain just knows what to do, like a pro gamer making split second moves. Thanks to Neuralink, Smith can race his kids in Mario Kart and talk to them faster than ever. He even uses an AI chatbot that comes up with clever replies. Once, it suggested giving a bouquet of carrots to a friend’s horse-loving girlfriend. For Smith, ALS may have taken a lot but Neuralink has given him something priceless: a way to speak up and stay connected to the world. Source: FOX

Ilya Sutskever explains why AI will do 100% the work that human can do within few years. "Slowly but surely, or maybe not so slowly, AI will keep getting better. The day will come when AI will do all of our, all the things that we can do, not just some of them, but all of them. Anything which I can learn, anything which any one of you can learn, the AI could do as well. How do we know this, by the way? How can I be so sure? How can I be so sure of that? The reason is that all of us have a brain, and the brain is a biological computer. That's why we have a brain; the brain is a biological computer. So why can't the digital computer, a digital brain, do the same things? This is the one-sentence summary for why AI will be able to do all those things: because we have a brain, and the brain is a biological computer." --- Full Video on 'University of Toronto' YT Channel (link in comment)

Elon Musk is right here. So many people are unaware of Neuralink, and how it’s going to change the lives of so many. In a new interview this morning: "Neuralink is creating a cybernetic interface to AI from your brain. It has enabled people who have completely lost their brain-body connection to speak again (phone, computer). We believe it will enable people to walk again. Let’s say someone had a severe spinal injury, you can transmit those signals to a second neural implant, and reanimate the body so people can use their limbs. We think at some point, live a normal life by effectively bridging the signals from the brain to past the point in the spine where the damage has occurred. Later this year, we expect to do our first implant for Blindsight. Where even if someone has lost both eyes, or the optic nerve, or perhaps if they were blind at birth, it will give them initially limited vision, but over time, very precise vision. Perphaps Superhuman." We should be talking about this more.

Dr. Daniel Monti just revealed a potentially massive breakthrough in Parkinson’s disease treatment. And it’s much simpler than you think. He just published his third study on a molecule called N-acetylcysteine, or “NAC for short.” “This is a powerful antioxidant.” “It actually protects the liver.” “We know that it does a lot of different things, but the important thing for us is that it’s a precursor to something called glutathione.” “Glutathione protects the brain when there’s damage or oxidative stress and we lose it as we age.” “And when we get sick, we lose it even more.” “So we want to have a way to efficiently increase glutathione in the brain, particularly when we have a neurodegenerative disorder such as Parkinson’s disease.” “We hypothesized early on that giving infused N-acetylcysteine would increase glutathione and actually have a positive impact on Parkinson’s disease.” “We’ve published three studies on this and we look at brain scans in all of them.” “And what we’ve seen is that the N-acetylcysteine increases the efficiency of dopamine in the brain, which is the neurotransmitter or chemical that gets lost in Parkinson’s disease and causes all of those symptoms.” “Our most recent study shows that it improves the way the brain connects to itself or talks to itself the functional connectivity in the brain.” “To be in the study, you couldn’t have changes in your Parkinson's medications for a period of time.” “In both the control group and in the NAC group, people were on their Parkinson’s medications, but if they got the NAC, they did better.” “Their brain came alive in a way that wasn’t happening before.”

🔥🚨BREAKING: Nectome The Portland Oregon tech company that Sam Altman is on the waitlist for since 2016 to kill him so they can upload his Brian to the internet which would allow him to live forever just confirmed that they have successful reanimated a dead pig’s brain meaning they are about to be ready to take human brains like Sam Altman’s and upload their consciousness online. An entire mammalian brain has been successfully preserved using a technique that will now be offered to people who are terminally ill. The intention is to preserve all the neural information thought necessary to one day reconstruct the mindof the person it once belonged to. Borys Wróbel at Nectome: “They would need to donate their brain and body for scientific research,” in Portland, Oregon, a research company focused on memory preservation. “But what we are offering, as a company, is for their body and brain to be kept, essentially indefinitely, in the hope that sometime, in the future, it would be possible to read out the information from the brain and reconstruct the person… to allow them to continue, in effect, with their life.”

Neuralink implant is a hardware upgrade that sits flush with the skull, replacing a small piece of bone with a battery-powered Bluetooth device "This Neuralink device has a battery, Bluetooth, and an inductive charger. Then, you've also got to insert the electrodes The electrodes are very carefully inserted with a robot that we developed. It is very carefully putting in the electrodes and avoiding any veins or arteries, so it doesn't create trauma It's basically implanted in your skull. It would be flush with your skull, so you basically take out a chunk of skull and replace it with the Neuralink device You insert the electrode threads very carefully into the brain, stitch it up, and you wouldn't even know that somebody has it"

Apple recently filed a patent number US20230225659A1 The new earbuds described in the patent will allow Apple to read your brain waves “Earbuds that are designed and patented by Apple to literally read your brain waves, record your brain waves — You're not going to believe what these guys have the control to do with these. Check this out. The patent is for a bio signal sensing device using dynamic selection of electrodes. This is absolutely Apple, it is 2023 and it gets not good. Brain activity can be monitored using electrodes placed on the scalp of a user. The electrodes may in some case be placed inside or around the outer ear of the user. Measuring the brain activity using electrodes placed in and around the outer ear may be preferred due to benefits such as reduced device mobility and decreased visibility of the electrodes when compared to other devices. — And look, it says for accurate measurement, A brain activity using an ear electroencephalography, oh my God, ear electroencephalography, EEG device.“ It can measure biosignals, including electroencephalography (EEG), electrical brain activity, along with others like EMG (muscle), EOG (eye movement), heart rate and more

Neuralink’s new approach inserts ultra-thin electrode threads directly through the intact dura and into the cortex....without cutting the dura open This is a huge surgical milestone The dura is the tough protective membrane covering the brain. Normally, reaching the cortex means cutting through that layer....one of the most delicate steps in brain surgery This could make BCI surgery: • Less invasive • More precise • More repeatable • Easier to scale • Safer for future patients The participant was controlling a cursor with their thoughts within an hour of surgery, with recovery progressing as expected This is a major step toward bringing brain-computer interfaces to people who have lost the ability to move, communicate, or interact with the world normally

EINSTEIN’S BRAIN AND THE NEURONS THAT TAUGHT THEMSELVES PONG When Einstein died, scientists studied his brain to see what set it apart. Most of it looked ordinary, except for one thing: the folds. His brain had far more of them than average. More folds meant more surface area, and more surface area meant more neurons. The difference was concentrated in his parietal lobes, the regions tied to math and spatial reasoning. Genius left a trace, but it was subtle, hidden in structure rather than size. Decades later, another mystery arrived. In 2022, researchers at Cortical Labs grew human neurons in a Petri dish and wired them to a chip running the game Pong. There was no human player, no brain, and no mind, just cells, signals, and feedback. Yet somehow, the neurons learned. The longer they played, the better they became. That forced an uncomfortable question: how does a group of disconnected neurons know how to play a game it has never seen. The answer is still unclear. Einstein’s brain revealed how intelligence can be built. Source: Joe Rogan

"After 30 years of selling breast implants, there were zero clinical trials and epidemiological studies that were published. Zero. A million women had breast implants. Zero published epidemiological or clinical studies. So in 1991, the FDA finally required implant companies to submit safety data. Women with breast implants were twice as likely to die from brain cancer and three times as likely to die from lung cancer. Other government studies have found silicone in women's lymph nodes under their arms, and from there it can travel to other organs throughout their body, including their brains and their lungs. When the implant makers presented their data to the FDA just a few months ago, those studies just disappeared." President of the US National Center for Health Research Diana Zuckerman, 2005
