- A letter from Neuralink, owned by Elon Musk, suggests a controversial experiment.
According to the information in this document, the company is already testing a brain-computer interface that could give people extraordinary mental abilities comparable to those of an Artificial Intelligence.
- No one knows what these experiments involve, but they have already begun on the guinea pig. The letter presents plans for a small operating room and a room for housekeeping, says Daily Mail.
- But you know that last year he asked for approval to use laboratory animals, especially rats and guinea pigs in experiments, and was allowed to use these animals at San Francisco's headquarters.
Experiments and the field of activity of Neuralink are not known but too many details. All that is known is that her employees are working to make a connection between computers and human brains.
This connection could be achieved by implanting some tiny devices. These small electrodes could be used to load and download thoughts, like a computer chip that downloads pictures or documents. In this way, communication between people could be accomplished by telepathy.
Elon Musk believes this connection is needed, so people can compete in the future with robots that are increasingly advanced.
At present, Neuralink wants to launch products to help people paralyzed or affected by neurological diseases that can not communicate by themselves. The technology will become widely available over the next 8 to 10 years, Elon Musk believes.
Neuralink is a start-up founded in July 2016 by Elon Musk for "medical research" and funding comes especially from its founder.
