Mr Arbaugh said that the device has given him the ability to have nearly full control over using a computer, using only his thoughts.
Noland Arbaugh, who became the first human to receive a Neuralink brain implant chip, recently revealed how the pioneering technology has changed his life. In an exclusive interview with ''Good Morning America's'' Will Reeve, Mr Arbaugh said that the device has given him the ability to have nearly full control over using a computer, using only his thoughts. The ambition is to supercharge human capabilities, treat neurological disorders like ALS or Parkinson's, and maybe one day achieve a symbiotic relationship between humans and artificial intelligence.
''I can control a computer just like anyone else can, which is not something I was able to do beforehand," Mr Arbaugh said.
He further said that participating in groundbreaking scientific research will help pave the way to improve the lives of paralysed people. ''I knew that if I did this then it would take a lot of headache and heartache away from the people down the road,'' he added.
