Musk-Linked Team Outlines System to Monitor Brain Activity

The video discusses the invention of a 'neural sewing machine' by scientists, which involves implanting electrodes into the brain to study neuron activity. This technology, tested on rats, is linked to Neuralink, a company founded by Elon Musk. The potential benefits include advancements in treating brain illnesses and merging humans with computers. However, there are concerns about the risks of AI, with Musk suggesting a symbiosis with AI as a solution.
