Monkey with Elon Musk’s brain implant appears to ‘telepathically’ communicate
A monkey fixed with Elon Musk's brain implant appears to have demonstrated the ability to "telepathically" communicate.
This incredible footage shows Sake seemingly ordering some fruit using the technology by moving a cursor across a virtual keyboard.
Speaking at Neuralink's Show and Tell Fall 2022 event, Musk said: "The monkeys actually enjoy doing the demos. And they get the banana smoothies, so it’s kind of a fun game.
"I guess the point I’m trying to make is that we care here about animal welfare."
The flashy event took place on Wednesday, 30 November.
