Elon Musk’s Neuralink recently implanted a chip in a human for the first time. The emerging market of brain computer interfaces, or BCIs, is in the process of finding its footing. In a world where AI is on the rise, BCIs allow for telepathic control of computers and wireless operation of prosthetics. But how does this tech work?
WSJ goes inside a brain surgery to see how the implants work, and breaks down what it’s going to take to get these devices on the market.

This technology is very exciting. My late husband had MS. He had a device implanted into his brain at the Cleveland Clinic in the late 90s. I wish this technology had been available for him.

@Code_in_simple_English Месяц назад

It would have been interesting if the WSJ had also addressed what could go wrong during the procedure of inserting such a device in the brain.

@karthage3637 25 дней назад

Well like any invasive surgery, the immune system can reject the implant, however brain is a special part of our body because of the hemato-encephalic barriere. But other than that it is just a reading device so it does not seems to have direct interaction with the brain, it looks like using an oscilloscope or stuff like that

@Shadow-bk1im 23 дня назад

Since it is at such an early step I don’t think anyone knows the true extent of the potential damage or how risky it is. I think it will take time to figure out the true risk.

@TonyJ1776 Месяц назад

This technology is both SCARY and EXCITING. The potential to help people with disabilities including hearing and blindness. Yet the introduction of AI is tremendously troubling. Check William Gibsons novels from the 80s in the cyberpunk genre. Prophetic.

2 questions: 1. What is the difference in sensitivity between the different solutions? I'm guessing that the more invasive it is, the more sensitive it is. Is that actually the case? 2. If the guess is true, then wouldn't it mean that eventually we will need an invasive solution because detection of brain signals can only go so far when you are outside the brain matter?

@jmoney4695 Месяц назад

The problem is not sensitivity, but resolution. Chips that are implanted above the dura (a protective layer on the brain) have difficulty with precise neuron spike detection, because all the layers of tissue in between the electrodes and the neurons disrupt the signals and make it blurrier. You are right that deeply invasive devices have the most potential. There is only so much a BCI can do with blurry, imprecise spike detection. There is a much higher capability ceiling with the higher bandwidth, invasive devices. In the future, if we wish to reach the limits of what BCIs can do, approaches like Neuralink have the most potential. Disclaimer: not an expert in any means, just someone who is interested in the tech

@thesadboxman Месяц назад

@@jmoney4695 You had me stumped at the difference between sensitivity and resolution. It wasn't top of mind that there was a difference! Thank you for pointing that out! "Resolution is the smallest portion of a signal that can be observed. Sensitivity is the smallest change in a signal that can be detected." is a definition I found on the interwebs. By that definition, wouldn't a more invasive probe provide improvement to both?

@DdDd-pl3nt Месяц назад

Also not many people mention that the lower the 'signal' quality the more compute is needed to correctly decode the data. Also another really important thing is the electrode placement density.

@thesadboxman Месяц назад

@@DdDd-pl3nt If the raw signal is processed directly by the NN software end to end (ie. not denoised/etc first), wouldn't compute be largely the same? Can you expand on the electrode placement density?

@DdDd-pl3nt Месяц назад

@@thesadboxman so the more electrodes you can put the more different regions of the brian you can effectively gather data from. The issue is the signal "clustering" Or whatever we call it where electrodes placed close to each other gather almost identical data. For the signal, as far as i know the Preprocessing of the brian data should always include denoising, normalizing etc (what you mentioned). What i mean is from low quality signal it's harder to extract the features you want, or harder to train a model you want to use to interpret the signals in the future. I'm also not a professional though, still learning.

Neuralink - tested and refined without having to experiment on humans and then implanted the final functional device for permanent usage in a human. Precision - 10 years away from first implant of a final product in a human and currently prototyping and experimenting their device with human subjects... also not anywhere near as capable as neuralink Synchron - nowhere near as capable as neuralink, using a crude approach that will never converge to anything remotely near to what Nueralink has already achieved (inter cranial 1:1 neuron read/write ability all in a single package not requiring any implant in the chest etc.)
