Paralyzed man Noland Arbaugh underwent Neuralink brain-computer interface procedure, acknowledging hacking risk.

Elon Musk's Neuralink brain-computer interface recipient, Noland Arbaugh, acknowledges the risk of hacking, despite expressing no significant concerns. Arbaugh, who was paralyzed after a 2016 diving accident, underwent the experimental procedure that involved stitching electrodes directly into his brain tissue. The Neuralink procedure uses a local anesthetic and doesn't require an overnight hospital stay.
