Elon Musk’s Vision: Pioneering the Next Generation of Bionic Eyes and Brain-Computer Interfaces
==========
Bionic vision and brain-computer interface technology is advancing rapidly. In the 1970s, Dr. John Donoghue pioneered techniques for decoding neural signals. In 2013, Second Sight achieved FDA approval for the first retinal implant, Argus II. Neuralink, Elon Musk's neurotechnology company, aims to deliver a brain implant system that streams visual data directly to the visual cortex. Human trials for Neuralink are slated to begin in 2023. Ethical questions remain around access, corporate responsibility, security, and unintended consequences. Skepticism is warranted, but progress in bionic body enhancements is inevitable. Legal and ethical safeguards must be established to protect vulnerable populations. The technology's impact on humanity depends on how it is deployed.
