Today I came across the concept of Neuralink. You may wonder what it is, just as I did. Neuralink is an implant designed by Elon Musk to be inserted into the brain of patients with quadriplegia. His aim is for people with quadriplegia to be able to control their phones by using their brain with no movement required! I think that sounds amazing! But is it too good to be true?

After conducting my own research through literature, I found that there has been many controversies associated with this venture. There have been rumours that the testing has resulted in animals/ monkeys have been left with debilitating after effects. Elon did combat this by stating that no animal has been harmed in the process of testing the product – all of which is still being investigated.
