NEURALINK’S QUIET REVOLUTION: FROM THOUGHT TO TOTAL DEVICE DOMINION Elon detonated a new reality. “Any device that can be controlled via computer or phone can be controlled by a Neuralink implant.” That means everything... cars, drones, even your lights, could soon obey a thought. Neuralink confirmed it: current trial...

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: NEURALINK WILL RESTORE LIMB FUNCTION AND MEMORY LOSS “Neuralink is gonna help solve a lot of nerve problems. 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, with local microcontrollers near the muscle groups. It could restore full limb functionality. Very exciting what can be done here. And memory, as people get older, they lose it. It’s incredibly sad when a mother forgets her children, and that can be solved too.” Source: ELON CLIPS

ELON: NEURALINK’S TELEPATHY ENABLES YOU TO CONTROL ALMOST ANYTHING BY THINKING “Our first product, we call it Telepathy, enables the person with a Neuralink implant to control their phone or computer just by thinking. Once you can control your phone or computer, you can essentially control almost anything, literally just by thinking. There's no eye tracking or anything. It is purely your thoughts. This is really quite a profound device that can help a lot of people who have lost the connection between their brain and body. Imagine if people like Stephen Hawking could communicate at the same speed as someone who still had the connection to their brain and body. It's really something that can help millions of people around the world.” Neuralink update, July 10, 2024

Elon Musk explains one of the most optimistic futures imaginable: Neuralink and Optimus restoring lost human abilities through real-world cyborg technology And the first people this could help are the ones who need it most: People who are paralyzed. People who are locked in. People who lost the ability to move, speak, or interact with the world normally like Stephen Hawking Neuralink is already helping patients control computers and robots with their thoughts "They can now communicate almost as quickly as we are communicating right now" “That’s going to continue to accelerate” But Elon’s next vision is even bigger: Use Neuralink to read motor-cortex signals from the brain, combine that with sensory feedback from the somatosensory cortex, and connect it to Optimus-style robotic limbs In simple terms: A person who lost their legs could one day control robotic legs with their mind - just pure thought. No buttons or joysticks Elon called it a real-life “Six Million Dollar Man” concept… but instead of being science fiction or insanely expensive, it could cost around $60,000 Neuralink gives the brain a digital output. Optimus gives the body robotic capability Together, they could create a path for people to walk again, move again, communicate again, and regain independence they thought was gone forever This is the future worth building

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 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."

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

The Mathematics of Moving a Cursor with Neural Signals What might Neuralink Neuralink be doing Mathematically? Consider the task of moving a cursor without touching it. The machine is not looking for a full thought, a sentence, or an image. For this Control problem, the useful object is an intended movement state. sₜ = (pₜ, vₜ) Here, pₜ is the cursor position at time t, and vₜ is the velocity the user is trying to express. The implant records neural activity through many electrode channels, then the decoder tries to estimate vₜ from that activity. Neuralink’s PRIME material describes the N1 Implant as recording and transmitting brain activity with the goal of enabling computer control. For channel i, a simple population model is rᵢ(t) ≈ bᵢ + aᵢ max(0, dᵢ · vₜ) + ηᵢ(t) where rᵢ(t) is the measured activity, bᵢ is baseline activity, aᵢ is channel gain, dᵢ is the channel’s preferred movement direction, and ηᵢ(t) is noise. One channel is not the command. The useful signal is the pattern across many channels: rₜ = (r₁(t), r₂(t), …, rₙ(t)) The decoder subtracts the baseline vector b and applies a learned map W: v̂ₜ = W(rₜ − b) This gives an estimate of the intended velocity. The cursor then updates by pₜ₊₁ = pₜ + Δt v̂ₜ This is the loop shown in the render: neural activity -> decoded velocity -> cursor motion The cortical network and electrode threads show the measurement side. The N1 Implant is described as using 1,024 electrodes distributed across 64 flexible threads, each thinner than a human hair. The decoder panel shows the computational side with activity rₜ, decoded velocity v̂ₜ, and the cursor state pₜ changing over time. A noisy biological pattern becomes a state estimate. That estimate becomes motion on a screen. Therefore, the first lesson is not that Neuralink makes the brain a screen. For cursor control, the Mathematics is more precise: A small piece of intention is represented as a hidden state, measured through neural activity, decoded as a vector, and turned into action. #Neuralink #BrainComputerInterface #NeuralEngineering #Mathematics #StateEstimation #Neuroscience #MachineLearning #BiomedicalEngineering

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

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.

🚨 NEURALINK’S FIRST NONVERBAL PATIENT JUST “SPOKE” USING TELEPATHY — AND IT’S BREAKING THE INTERNET “This is my old voice… cloned by AI.” A man with advanced ALS who lost ALL ability to speak is now communicating again using nothing but his thoughts. He made this video using telepathy, edited with his mind. Read that again. • Implant in his motor cortex (controls movement) • Size of five stacked quarters that replaces part of his skull • Robot threads placed millimeters into the brain, avoiding blood vessels • Thoughts → text → AI voice in real time Before this? He was completely paralyzed. Completely nonverbal. Trapped inside his own body using eye-tracking just to communicate. Now he’s typing with his mind… joking with his kids… even beating them at Mario Kart again. He says life has greatly improved since receiving the Neuralink brain chip impact. And that voice you’re hearing? Those are his thoughts turned into speech. Would you implant a chip in your brain to get your life back?

Elon Musk just stripped away every emotional narrative around paralysis and reduced it to a pure engineering equation. The human nervous system is not mystical. It is a biological wiring grid. When a wire breaks, you build a bypass. Traditional medicine treats a severed spinal cord as a permanent biological endpoint. Musk treats it as a broken routing switch. Musk: “It’s basically a communications bridge. You bridge the communications from the motor cortex past the point in the neck or spine where the nerves are damaged.” Not a miracle. Not a mystery. A bridge. Musk: “It is possible from a physics standpoint to restore full body functionality. There is nothing that prevents it happening from a physics standpoint.” The physics already check out. This is not a question of possibility. It is a question of execution speed. We are building AGI by mastering computational physics in silicon. Neuralink is applying that same mastery to carbon. The human body is not a sacred text. It is a machine. And machines can be patched. But this is bigger than medicine. Humanity’s ability to interface with superintelligence is currently bottlenecked by thumbs typing on a glass screen. Neuralink is the solution to that constraint dressed as a medical device. If you can bridge the brain past a broken spine, you can bridge the brain to a data center. Healing the paralyzed is step one. Merging with superintelligence is the endgame. Musk: “It’s a very hard technical problem, right, but there is nothing that prevents it happening from a physics standpoint.” Somewhere right now, a person is sitting in a wheelchair. An engineer is sitting in a lab. Neither knows the other exists. But one of them is quietly rewriting the definition of permanent. And it isn’t the one in the wheelchair.

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.

‼️BIG TECH IS NOW RELEASING A DEVICE THAT WILL MAKE YOU CONSCIOUS INSIDE YOUR OWN DREAMS Prophetic, an American technology company, has officially launched a device capable of tapping into your dreams. Not just to observe them, but to remember, shape, and control them. Here is how it works. The device sends low-level ultrasonic pulses through the forehead and directly into the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that goes quiet during regular dreaming but lights up during lucid dreams. By gently reactivating that region, the device pulls your sleeping brain into a state of full awareness, where you know you are dreaming and can steer where it goes. The last frontier of human privacy was your mind while you slept. That just ended. The WEF's "you will own nothing and you will be happy" just got its biggest upgrade yet. Why spend years convincing you while you are awake when they can simply program it in while you sleep? Nothing to see here. Absolutely nothing can go wrong. Sweet dreams. They are counting on it.

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

21 people are controlling computers with their thoughts. Not in a research demo. In their daily lives. Neuralink's Telepathy trial has nearly doubled since September. The implant reads your motor cortex and translates neural signals into digital commands. No voice. No eye tracking. No hands. One participant hit able-bodied cursor speeds in his first week. Others are typing at 40 words per minute using imagined finger movements. A med student uses it 17 hours a day to study. A woman who hadn't controlled a computer in 20 years is making art. A father with ALS rigged a 360 camera to his wheelchair and controls it telepathically so he can watch his kids. Next up: 3x the electrodes, a new trial targeting real-time speech at 140 WPM, and zero serious device-related adverse events across every participant so far. Brain-computer interfaces are no longer theoretical.

Dear Elon Musk, The young man in the video is an Iranian who lost sight in both of his eyes during the nationwide protests against the Islamic Terrorist Regime. He was shot at close range with pellets, and as a result, he has been left completely blind. He recently learnt that Neuralink is developing a chip that may one day help restore vision. With great hope, he recorded this video in the belief that someone, somewhere, might be able to help bring his plea to your attention. What was taken from him through violence, he now hopes to regain—if only partially—through the power of innovation and the work you are leading. His message is simple: he is asking for a chance. A chance at a future in which he may see again. If there is any possibility for research, future trials, guidance, or even a sign of encouragement from you or the Neuralink team, it would mean more than words can express to him, and to many others around the world who follow your breakthroughs with hope.

Elon Musk just revealed what happens when Neuralink and Optimus merge, and it’s not about helping the disabled. It’s about making them better than you. “You’d have basically Cybernetics Superpowers.” Not recovery. Evolution. Lose a limb and the replacement isn’t restoration. It’s upgrade to capabilities biology never provided. Optimus hardware. Neuralink bandwidth. Brain commands routing directly to mechanical limbs with zero latency. Musk: “The motor commands from your brain… now go to your robot arms or robot legs.” Neural signals hit robotic targets. Thought becomes motion. Precision exceeding anything flesh achieved. Not fixing disability. Creating advantage. Musk: “Combine that with a Neuralink.” Where his two biggest projects collide. Medical application for amputees becomes the wedge. Optimus arm attached. Neuralink implanted. Brain signals reroute to mechanical hardware seamlessly. Think movement. Machine executes. Not approximation of biological function. Direct neural control of superior platform. Musk: “Motor commands from your brain… go to your robot arms.” The gap between human and machine is just wiring. Neuralink bridges it. Optimus provides hardware that outperforms biology in every metric. Robotic limb lifts ten times more. Reacts faster. Never tires. Never weakens. The replacement isn’t equivalent. It’s superior. Musk: “And again, you’d have basically Cybernetics Superpowers.” We’re not restoring function. We’re demonstrating that biology was the limitation. Once someone with Optimus limbs provably outperforms biological humans, injury stops being tragedy and becomes competitive edge. The amputee isn’t disadvantaged anymore. They’re enhanced. Stronger. Faster. More capable than intact humans beside them. That’s when everything inverts. Disability stops being disability when the replacement exceeds the original. And once performance gap becomes visible and measurable, keeping biological limbs becomes the handicap. Why biological arm strength when mechanical replacement lifts exponentially more? Why biological endurance when robotic systems don’t fatigue? Why accept limitations when alternatives eliminate them? The injured person with upgrades isn’t trying to reach normal. They surpassed it. And everyone still constrained by biology just became comparatively disabled. At that point, waiting for injury to get enhancement becomes irrational. People seek elective replacement. Functional biology gets swapped for superior mechanics because performance matters more than origin. Your body isn’t sacred. It’s legacy hardware running obsolete specifications. And when better hardware integrates seamlessly through neural interface, keeping the original stops being preservation and becomes self-imposed limitation. Neuralink plus Optimus doesn’t help the disabled catch up to the able-bodied. It makes the able-bodied obsolete. And once that’s obvious, once enhanced humans demonstrably outcompete biological ones, the question stops being whether we should upgrade and becomes how fast we can before everyone else does and we’re left behind operating with inferior equipment. The disabled aren’t getting fixed. They’re getting first access to the platform that makes everyone else obsolete. And biology’s reign as optimal human configuration just got an expiration date.
