Neuralink implants experimental device in second patient for paralysis assistance.

Neuralink, Elon Musk's brain-computer interface startup, has successfully implanted its experimental device in a second patient, aiming to help paralyzed individuals control digital devices through their thoughts alone. The first patient, who had a spinal cord injury, has shown the ability to play video games, browse the internet, post on social media, and control a laptop cursor after receiving the implant. Neuralink plans to use the device in an additional eight patients this year.
