Elon Musk’s secretive company Neuralink is developing brain machine interfaces and the company has showed off the technology it has been working on to the public recently for the first time and it is insane. According to Musk, Neuralink brain chips will be able to cure paralyzed people and it’s amazing.
Hey guys! Welcome back to our channel Elon Evolution where we tell you all the latest news about Elon Musk and his multibillion companies. In today’s video we are going to talk about how these brain chips actually work and how is it going to fully recover paralyzed people. If you want to find out more, then stay with us until the end of the video.

Neuralink was founded by Musk and a team of engineers and scientists in the year 2016 with the aim of bringing something new to the world and the company unveiled wired version of its implant technology in 2019. It had several modules that included electrodes which were connected to a USB port in the skull and this port was intended to be wired to an external battery and radio transmitter that were located behind the ear. The latest version of brain chips consists of a single integrated implant that fits in a hole in the skull and relays data through the skin via Bluetooth radio. This wireless design of the new version makes it seem much more practical for human use, however it limits the bandwidth of data that can be sent, compared with state-of-art brain-computer interfaces.
Musk has stated several times that the main goal of the Neuralink is to solve problems related to spine and brain in human with a seamlessly implanted device. This is a big step towards the future as it will merge humans with artificial intelligence.
Neuralink’s efforts show decades of hard work by the researchers and scientists in the field of brain-computer interfaces. However, it’s not the first time someone has worked with the brain chips. First proposed in the 1970s, brain-machine interfaces have already achieved a lot over the decades. Initial versions let people move virtual cursors, and more recent ones allow for full control of mechanical arms. As of today, the only FDA approved BMI is the Utah Array, a 1mm implant with 100 electrodes that can capture and stimulate brain cells. This array is currently on clinical trials as a treatment for several different diseases.
About a decade ago Brown university scientists David Borton and Arto Nurmikko and their colleagues developed a wireless neuro sensor which was capable of recording neural activity in pigs and monkeys. So, in 2016 the researchers found out that this technology can be used to make the paralyzed monkeys walk again. Nurmikko stated about this:
“Neuralink, with a lot of creativity, has been able to cut and paste a lot of stuff that the field has developed”
He also said that the technology they have used may not be unique, but it might have a robust future in terms of actually getting into humans. Musk and his engineers at Neuralink are devoting significant resources to this project and according to professor of electrical and biomedical engineering at Columbia University, Ken Shephard:
“It is an extremely well-funded, focused effort. They said they have 100 people working on this. That’s a level of resources that is pretty impressive to work on something like this. I think that gives them a real advantage over other groups”
