Talk of ambitious projects and visions in today’s era, your mind will most likely throw up the name Elon Musk. Be it sending humans to space or to reduce travel time using his ambitious hyperloop idea. But, Musk has also been working on many healthcare projects. One of his companies, Neuralink, conducts experiments in its tightly secured labs.

However, last week, Elon Musk had revealed his revolutionising plans for neural implants. Their main purpose to organize the Neuralink launch event was to recruit some bright young minds to join his company. However, what essentially happened was more of a declaration of the future of technology in neuroscience.

Neuralink aims to embed flexible threads in the brain as implants and enable paralyzed people to control their phones and computers. In a way, Neuralink aims to merge the human brain with artificial intelligence.

Are we ready for this? Well, only time will tell!
