Neuralink was founded by billionaire Elon Musk, a company specializing in neural technology based in San Francisco. The company is developing a brain-computer interface to treat neurological ailments like Alzheimer's, dementia and spinal cord injuries. Essentially, this is a network of tiny electrodes linked to the brain, allowing humans to communicate wirelessly with everything and everyone around them.
Those inexplicable beliefs, fears, hopes, anxiety, and abstractions will become clear thanks to Neuralink's technology. In addition, it can allow humans to communicate with animals. Last year, the company started testing the Neuralink chip in Gertrude pigs. This may be considered unethical by many, but when it is scientifically understood and what it really means, the chip transplantation will be accepted as any groundbreaking discovery human has ever witnessed. .
Of course, that doesn't deny the fact that putting a chip in an animal brain - and in the future, the human brain - would be extremely risky. That's why Neuralink always makes a careful decision for every step they take.
Neuralink began testing its technology on pigs in the mid-2020s with promising results. In early 2021, the company also tested a wireless implant in a monkey's skull, allowing it to play games with its own mind.
More recently, Neuralink is said to be in discussion of a human trial, which could be conducted in mid- or late-2021.
The human story goes in the following order: first, man discovers fire, and then develops oral language. Then, turn oral language into written language, and finally, figure out how to turn it into motorized print. Several centuries later, electricity was born, creating phones, radios, TVs and finally personal computers and smartphones. Then the phone started to "lose the cord", the computer got small, people figured out a way to make them exponentially stronger and small enough to fit in a pocket. Neuralink's technology will be the next wave of what personal computers and smartphones have done. This time, it will be a huge transformation.
Neuralink's application can change the perception and meaning of communication, because the way people interact with things will be very different. Neuralink could be the next technological revolution with the ability to transform some, if not all, industries. In which, smart phones and computers will be the first industries.
Brain interface will provide human with the ability to communicate wirelessly with cloud platforms, computers. That means whatever you type by hand on the iPhone can be done just by thinking about it.
Information flow from the brain to the outside world will be so easy that the user feels he is thinking normally. It becomes second instinct for many, if not the first.
Basically, the Neuralink brain chip interface is a communication system. The feeling will be like wearing a headset. But instead of responding to the other end of the line by speaking, the user will answer the caller with his thoughts. The signals coming out of the nerve cell, once recorded by the interface, are converted to data. There are countless applications for this technology.
