Elon Musk says first brain chip human can move a mouse around screen by thinking

Elon Musk has claimed the first human patient implanted with his wireless Neuralink brain chip can move a computer cursor ‘just by thinking’.

‘Progress is good, and the patient seems to have made a full recovery, with neural effects that we are aware of,’ Musk said in a Spaces event X.

‘Patient is able to move a mouse around the screen by just thinking.’

Musk said Neuralink, a company working to develop a brain-nervous system interface that can be poked into human brains, is now trying to get as many mouse button clicks as possible from the patient.
