Elon Musk, one of the richest businessmen in the world, has performed a new feat. In fact, his company Neuralink has claimed to implant a brain chip in a human being. Elon Musk told that this process is called telepathy. He told that the disabled people will get the most benefit from this brain chip. Today we will tell you what is brain chip and telepathy and how it works.
What’s so special about this chip?
• The Neuralink brain chip is the size of a coin. This chip can be used for people facing brain and nervous system disorders.
• There are many small wires in this chip, one wire will be 20 times thinner than a human hair. This chip will be implanted very carefully through surgery in a particular part of the human brain.
• Apart from this, there will be 1024 electrodes in these wires, which will monitor every movement of the brain. These electrodes will stimulate the physiological and nervous activities of the brain. The data collected in the chip can be used in future research.
• These electrodes process neuron signals of the brain. After this, that data further goes to the Neuralink app. There the software decodes that data and takes action based on it.
• Apart from this, this chip has advanced wireless technology. Through which it will transmit the neural signal to a device like computer or phone.
• In the future, this chip will gradually understand the human brain and work according to its algorithm and give signals.
Allen’s company Neuralink
Elon Musk’s neurotechnology company Neuralink, a brain chip manufacturing company for the human brain, was started in 2016 with 6 scientists. This company is working on creating a direct communication channel between the brain and the computer. Let us tell you that the company has made such a chip, which will be inserted inside the human brain through surgery. After which it will work like the human brain. Let us tell you that it will be used especially for people facing brain and nervous system disorders. If we explain it in simple language, then when many other organs of the body stop functioning, we transplant them. In the same way it is a brain transplant.
When did the test get approval?
Neuralink had received approval from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) last year for in-human clinical trials to test human brain transplantation. Neuralink claims that it will use these brain chips to treat conditions such as paralysis and blindness and to help some people with disabilities use computer and mobile technology. However, before humans, these chips were tested on monkeys.
Successful trials on animals
The company has claimed that this chip will be controlled from basic devices like smartphones and computers. Let us tell you that when this chip was being tested, initially it was tested on some animals. Neuralink company had also posted its video on its YouTube channel. In which an African monkey, who had a chip implanted in his brain, is seen playing a video game with a joystick. But the company also had to face an investigation due to testing on animals. Because Neuralink was accused that since 2018 till now the company has killed more than 1500 animals for the trial of its brain chip. Although the company had denied this.
