Elon Musk said a third person has received an implant from his brain-computer interface company Neuralink, one of many groups working to connect the nervous system to machines. “We’ve got ... three humans with Neuralinks and all are working well,” he said during a wide-ranging interview at a Las Vegas event streamed on his social media platform X.

Elon Musk, owner of Neuralink, revealed that he plans to have 30 patients with brain chips implanted this year. O post Elon Musk plans to implant 30 Neuralink brain chips this year apareceu primeiro em TechBreak.

A third patient received a brain implant from Neuralink, a neurotechnology company founded by Elon Musk. The billionaire said, "We’ve got ... three humans with Neuralinks and all are working well," during a wide-ranging interview at a Las Vegas event streamed on his social media platform X.

Neuralink’s three implants are part of its ongoing Prime study, which is evaluating the safety of Neuralink’s brain device in individuals with quadriplegia. In September 2024, the company announced the approval of a second study known as Convoy, which will explore extending its brain device capabilities to control an assistive robotic arm.

Neuralink continues its push in the brain-computer interface space with a third implant, while competitors and researchers accelerate advancements globally.

Neuralink’s innovative device involves implanting ultra-fine threads into the brain tissue, a process performed by a specialized surgical robot.

Neuralink Corp., founded by Elon Musk, continues to push the boundaries of brain-computer interface technology. The company recently announced that its brain implant device has been successfully implanted in three human patients, with plans for an ambitious rollout of 20 to 30 more implants by 2025.
