After reading a recent article about Neuralink first human implant, I was wondering why controversies has the company undergone?

Neuralink was founded in 2016 by Elon Musk, owner of the social media company X, formerly known as Twitter. The aim of this neurotechnology is to create an interface with the the human brain and electronic devices such as smartphones in order to help treat people with potential brain injuries and certain behavioural disorders. As of January 2024, Musk tweeted the first every human implant surgery had been successful and the patient is recovering well.

However, the company has undergone plenty of controversial over the years.
