Sat down with @shaunmmaguire recently to talk through where Neuralink is and where it's going. A few things that came up: - over 20 participants now, more than 45,000 hours of BCI use — people controlling computers and speaking again with their thoughts, still hits me every time - the implant with tiny flexible threads is impressive, but so are the surgical robots, microfab, and assembly lines needed to deliver BCI at scale (arguably harder to build) - our current focus is restoration of function - but the brain doesn't think in keystrokes, what we're really after is direct transfer of concepts, no compression, no language bottleneck - most timelines are just friction people have accepted as normal, and we often ask: if every light were green, how fast could you physically build this? - the caregivers and families of our participants don't get enough credit — their stories of love, sacrifice, and resilience keep us showing up the way we do https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=by7Y9KoErTw
