A few days ago, Elon Musk shared a brief yet significant update on Neuralink, one of his groundbreaking companies:

The first human received an implant from Neuralink. While the tweet is brief and Neuralink is not the first company ever to implant a chip in the human brain, this is still a significant step towards a future where technology plays an increasingly important role.

What is Neuralink?

Neuralink is a neurotechnology company founded by Elon Musk and a team of 7 scientists and engineers in 2016, known for developing advanced brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). Currently based in Fremont, California, its primary focus is on creating implantable devices that connect the human brain directly to computers.
