For the first time in the United States, a neurochip was implanted in the human brain.
New York-based startup Synchron has become the first US company to receive approval to implant a neurochip into the human brain. For this, the company beat Elon Musk's company Neuralink. The neurochip patient was severely paralyzed.
Now, with the help of a neurochip, he can chat on the Internet, shop online and perform other tasks.
It should be recalled that Elon Musk announced in February of this year that he plans to test neurochips on humans.
And Musk's Neuralink is working on a smaller and more powerful implant that would control hormones, fight depression, and even make the brain work more efficiently.
