Elon Musk's brain-computer interface startup, Neuralink, is now accepting applications for a second participant to receive its brain-chip implant. The announcement follows the successful implantation of the first chip in Noland Arbaugh, a 29-year-old patient who was paralyzed below the shoulders after a driving accident. "Neuralink is accepting applications for the second participant. This is our Telepathy cybernetic brain implant that allows you to control your phone and computer just by thinking," Musk announced on X.
