New York CNN —The first test subject for Neuralink, Elon Musk’s brain chip implant startup, has developed a problem just a few weeks after it was inserted. But the company said it was able to make the implant more sensitive to increase its performance even further. About a month after the operation, Musk said Arbaugh could control a computer mouse with his brain after having the chip implanted. Like existing brain-machine interfaces, the company’s implant would collect electrical signals sent out by the brain and interpret them as actions. Before Neuralink’s brain implants hit the broader market, they’ll need broader regulatory approval.

Neuralink has built a brain-computer interface, or a BCI, that could eventually help patients with paralysis control external technology using only their minds. But in the weeks following the procedure, a number of threads retracted from Arbaugh's brain, Neuralink said in a blog post Wednesday. Neuralink shared its blog post after the Journal asked the company about the issue, according to the report. Arbaugh said the Link is like a "luxury overload," and it has helped him to "reconnect with the world," according to the blog post. Neuralink is not the only company that is building a BCI system, and the technology has been explored in academic settings for decades.

Read previewNeuralink's first patient, Noland Arbaugh, said he did his research before he decided to get the brain implant, including looking into the reports of animal testing gone awry. AdvertisementBefore Elon Musk's company Neuralink began human testing, the company shared demos of monkeys and pig test subjects using the implant. "No monkey has died as a result of a Neuralink implant," Musk wrote on X in September. "It's hard to describe something in your brain," Arbaugh said. Neuralink began recruiting for human trials last year and unveiled its first human patient earlier this month.

Neuralink shared a video of its first human patient appearing to play "Mario Kart" with his mind. AdvertisementNeuralink has shared a video that appeared to show its first human patient using his brain-chip implant to play "Mario Kart." During an all-hands meeting with Neuralink staff, the company brought its first patient, 29-year-old Noland Arbaugh, onstage to describe the brain chip's capabilities. At the all hands, Neuralink showed a split-screen video of Donkey Kong and Bowser racing in the Mario Kart game. Hope y'all enjoy!… pic.twitter.com/YNa2Jtjhnk — Noland Arbaugh (@ModdedQuad) March 22, 2024The Neuralink worker also showed a separate video of Arbaugh playing "Mario Kart" alongside his father.

Elon Musk's startup Neuralink streamed a live video on Wednesday that showed a patient using the company's brain implant to move a mouse and play chess on a computer. A BCI is a system that deciphers brain signals and translates them into commands for external technologies. Dr. Nader Pouratian, chair of the Department of Neurological Surgery at UT Southwestern Medical Center, said researchers have been developing and studying BCI technology for years. It is not clear how many patients are participating in Neuralink's trial, or what the trial is trying to demonstrate. There is reason to be hopeful about Neuralink's technology, said Dr. Marco Baptista, chief scientific officer of the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, which provides resources to people who have become paralyzed.
