Neuralink announced that it will launch another clinical trial of its brain implant as early as next month. This time, the company plans to "teach" its proprietary chip to recognize the "inner" voice of people who have lost the ability to communicate verbally.
Brain chips already help people type using on-screen keyboards. Neuralink engineers hope that "translating" thoughts into text will speed up this process, eliminating the need to type word for word.
We believe it will actually be possible to demonstrate the ability to communicate with an AI model at the speed of thought, even faster than speaking.
It is expected that the words "read" by the AI will be input by a neural network, and the user will be able to hear the interlocutor (or chatbot)'s responses through headphones (such as AirPods). The company has not yet disclosed technical details of the upcoming clinical trial.
