Elon Musk shows off updates to his brain chips and says he’s going to install one in himself when they are ready

PUBLISHED THU, DEC 1

KEY POINTS

Elon Musk’s health tech venture Neuralink shared updates to its brain-implant technology during a “show and tell” recruitment event Wednesday night. Musk said two of the company’s applications will aim to restore vision, even for people who were born blind, and a third application will focus on the motor cortex, restoring “full body functionality” for people with severed spinal cords. The announcements should be treated with some skepticism, say experts.
