Elon Musk's Neuralink Wants to Expand Brain Chip Trial to 2nd Human Patient
$Tesla (TSLA.US)$$BYD COMPANY (01211.HK)$$NIO Inc (NIO.US)$$XPeng (XPEV.US)$The article reported that Elon Musk’s Neuralink is signaling it’s ready to implant its brain chip in a second human patient after more than three months of tests with Noland Arbaugh, the first human subject. On Thursday, Musk tweeted: “Neuralink is accepting applications for the second participant. This is our Telepathy cybernetic brain implant that allows you to control your phone and computer just by thinking." His post retweets a Neuralink video intended to recruit eligible users for the second trial; it offers a glimpse of how the brain chip was surgically implanted in Arbaugh in January.
My Take: This is a breakthrough because Neuralink is the first to receive human clinical tests approval by FDA. Despite the success in the first human implant, media continues to make overblown negative bias reports about it.

EM is the CEO of Tesla and Neuralink. It's no secret that Tesla uses state-of-the-art technology from EM's own companies like Neuralink, SpaceX and The Boring.
