First Human Patient to Receive a Neuralink Brain Implant Used it to Stay Up All Night Playing Civilization 6
The first human recipient of a Neuralink brain implant has shared new details on his recovery and experience of living with the experimental assistive tech.

The start of the article is confusing. Given what it tells us that the patient has been doing, it sounds like the chip only acts as a receptor of the brain's outputs, this is, the chip should act on the brain as little as possible. However,
The billionaire also hinted at the time that the implant was functioning well and had detected a “promising neuron spike”.
Which makes it sound like the very opposite. Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if Elon had no goddamn idea about what the implant does yet rushed to comment on it anyway.
Or, he's just a liar.
He uses those words as buzzwords, having no real clue about the correct terms are.
But obviously looks like they do aim to "interface", not just interpret, eeg already can do that from outside the brain
I would never have assumed he had a clue what was happening in the first place. What role, apart from money, does the Boer even play in this thing?
'Spike' probably is refering to a shape on a graph and not any physical harpoon like component.
for me it just sounds like the chip is receiving signals from neurons and the "spike" is basically a signal.
short: the chips works well in receiving signals and you can control the mouse by that. so nothing sending hut just receiving and getting a clear signal.
