A major breakthrough in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology has restored the ability to communicate for a 47-year-old woman who lost her speech following a severe stroke. For the first time, a brain implant has been successfully used to translate neural activity into spoken words in near real-time, marking a significant step forward in assistive neurotechnology….
The integration of technology with the human brain is no longer a concept of science fiction. Companies and research institutions around the world are racing to develop brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that could revolutionize how humans interact with machines. Among these, Neuralink, a company founded by Elon Musk, has gained significant attention for its ambitious goals….
Dr. Peter Breggin, a renowned psychiatrist and author, recently delivered a sharp critique of the transhumanist movement during an interview on the “Health Ranger Report.” The transhumanist movement advocates for the integration of humans with artificial intelligence (AI) and other advanced technologies to achieve what some have termed “silicon immortality.” However, according to Breggin, this…
Elon Musk’s Neuralink has recently implanted its pioneering brain-computer interface (BCI) device, known as the N1 chip, into Noland Arbaugh, a 29-year-old quadriplegic patient. This groundbreaking procedure aims to facilitate telepathic communication and address neurological disorders, marking a significant milestone in neural engineering. The procedure and initial outcomes In January 2024, Arbaugh underwent surgery to…
