The company said that patient Alex did not experience any problems with the chip's connecting wires separating, unlike the first trial in January.

On August 21st, the company announced measures such as reducing brain movement during surgery and limiting the distance between the implant and the brain surface to prevent potential problems in the second patient, similar to those that occurred in the first patient.
Neuralink is currently testing its device to help people with spinal cord injuries.
Neuralink was founded in 2016 by Elon Musk and seven other members with the ambition to change the world and unlock the potential of telepathy. In 2019, Musk stated that humans would merge and achieve symbiosis with AI. However, security experts are concerned that the system could be attacked by hackers.
In January 2024, the chip was first implanted in the brain of Noland Arbaugh, a quadriplegic living in Arizona, USA. After the implantation, he was able to control a computer mouse with his thoughts within a few weeks. The surgery is now underway for the next patient.
Musk asserted that Neuralink's goal is not only to restore normal functioning to people with neurological impairments but also to improve their natural abilities. He also stated that Neuralink users will have superior vision compared to the average person in the future.
