Neuralink has successfully implanted its brain chip in a third patient, according to Elon Musk. All three patients are reported to be doing well. This marks a significant step in the company's efforts to develop brain-computer interfaces. Neuralink plans to conduct 20 to 30 more implant procedures in 2025. The first implant occurred a year ago, and the company aims to help individuals with neurological conditions regain independence through its technology. The company has two clinical studies registered with the FDA. One focuses on helping paralyzed patients control devices with their thoughts, while the other involves using the implant to operate assistive robotic arms.
