There are now at least two patients who have had Neuralink's brain chip implanted in their head. While there have been some bumps in the road, it appears that things are going well enough for Elon ...

Elon Musk’s Neuralink, the brain-computer interface ... The trial will use a two-ton (1.8-ton) robot to implant 64 electrodes, each with 16 contacts, into the hand-motor areas of patients ...

The "early feasibility" open-label study will also test the safety and efficacy of Neuralink's R1 robot that is used to implant the thread-like electrodes used in the BCI into the brain.

The threads are so fine that they have to be implanted using a surgical robot. News of the CONVOY has come just a few days after Neuralink reported that had also been given the green light to run ...

Neuralink is just one player in an emerging market for brain chips, devices that help people telepathically control computers and more. WSJ goes inside a brain surgery to see how the implants work.
