What is Neuralink? Breaking down Elon Musk’s brain implant company

Billionaire Elon Musk is pictured walking during a presentation.

Elon Musk has plenty of ambitious plans for the world: Trips to Mars via SpaceX. An “everything app” through Twitter. Brain implants capable of transmitting human thoughts via Neuralink.

This last goal, according to Musk, is one step closer to achieving it.

Co-founded by Musk in 2016, Neuralink plans to implant devices into the human brain that would allow people with neurological disorders to control computers or robotic limbs with their minds. Musk said he also wanted to “achieve some sort of symbiosis with artificial intelligence” and possibly enable telepathic communication with the device.

Musk says human trials should begin in 2023 pending regulatory approval, but the company pushed back the start date earlier.

Here’s what we know about the company’s brain implant technology and its ambitions.
