It\u2019s *awesome*,\u201d he wrote in February. \u201cThe profound impact of high bandwidth, high precision neural interfaces is underappreciated. Neuralink may have this in a human as soon as this year.

Gathering huge amounts of data from the signals gradually teaches Neuralink\u2019s software how they are used by the brain to communicate with the rest of the body, ultimately leading to a certain amount of replication and direction. The possibilities of such a capability seem endless.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>[ <a href=\"https:\/\/www.teslarati.com\/elon-musk-neuralink-neuron-demonstration-event\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click to continue reading at Teslarati<\/a> ]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>from Teslarati Elon Musk to unveil Neuralink progress with real-time neuron demonstration this week by Dacia J.
