After pig & monkey, Neuralink 6 months away from human trial: Musk

Elon Musk on Thursday said that his brain-computer Neuralink’s device is ready for human trials and he is expecting to do so in about six months from now. Neuralink has submitted most of the paperwork needed for a human clinical trial to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Neuralink’s goal is to create a device that can be implanted in the brain, and use it to control a computer with brain activity.
