Elon Musk revealed fascinating new information about his brain-computer interface business, Neuralink, during his video link appearance at VivaTech today. Musk then unveiled the company’s next big ambition: giving blind people their sight back. This was demonstrated in a video showing a Neuralink patient manipulating a computer cursor with their thoughts.
“The next product is called Blindsight,” Musk said, “and it will allow people who have lost both of their eyes or have no sight at all to see.”and this is interacting directly with the brain’s visual processing regions.” He went on to say that this innovative technology might be able to “address almost any brain or spine injury.”
Neuralink’s initial human trials were approved by the FDA prior to this news. Their first product, called “Telepathy,” lets customers operate computers and phones with just their thoughts. The consequences are enormous for people with paralysis or other crippling illnesses.
Musk also recognised the necessity for rigorous ethical analysis, particularly with relation to AI, and the possible risks associated with brain-computer interfaces. “Truth-seeking” AI development is crucial, he said, adding, “I believe bandwidth will be the limiting issue for AI alignment long-term.How soon can we get in touch with our…digital tertiary selves?”
