Neuralink says implant had issues after first human surgery

Neuralink, Elon Musk's brain technology company, has experienced mechanical issues with the device implanted in its first human patient. The electrode-studded threads in the patient's brain tissue started to retract, causing the device to malfunction. Neuralink remedied the issue with software fixes, resulting in improved performance. The company is working on enhancing text entry and cursor control for the device and aims to expand its capabilities to physical world devices like robotic arms and wheelchairs. Brain implant experts speculate that the complications arose due to the location of the device within the skull rather than directly on the brain tissue.
