🚨BREAKING: Neuralink’s first patient in the UK, Paul, who is paralyzed by motor neuron disease, has received a brain implant. Just hours after surgery, he was able to control a computer with his thoughts and is now using it to play games and regain independence.

Neuralink enabled a paralyzed ALS patient to control a robotic arm and feed himself using only his thoughts. @neuralink

This is astounding. He must be very early on in his diagnoses being that he can still eat and breathe without hoses. I hope he continues to get the care he needs.

Imagine how smooth with it he will be once he fully syncs with the arm and the micro thoughts for fine control, it is a limb to him now the same as his arms and hands truly amazing

When they step away, he's going to get out to "do the right thing"

I wonder if it’s really the human control or AI control

Can he smile, or say yum at least?

I wish that was around years ago. I lost both an uncle and a MIL (not related) to ALS. Such a horrible affliction.

Truly amazing work by Nueralink. What thrill and ray of hope for many
My Mother passed in March of 2023. She was 81 and refused feeding tubes as to not prolong the inevitable.
What about jerking motions after the camera is off?

What happens when an intrusive thought comes out of nowhere?

Cool! What about if he did it himself, without even thinking, with his own hand? What about this Neurelink? Any ideas? Technologies?
