Brain implant startup backed by Bezos and Gates is testing mind-controlled computing on humans

In a Brooklyn lab stuffed with 3D printers and a makeshift pickleball court, employees at a brain interface startup called Synchron are working on technology designed to transform daily life for people with paralysis.

The Synchron Switch is implanted through the blood vessels to allow people with no or very limited physical mobility to operate technology such as cursors and smart home devices using their mind. So far, the nascent technology has been used on three patients in the U.S. and four in Australia.

I know that this type of technology is probably scaring the crap out of some people, but for the ones who are suffering from a debilitating disease or condition I imagine that this technology is a true blessing.

It's an amazing time to be alive. And if mankind doesn't destroy itself, just imagine what life will look like 50-100 years from now. It truly will look like something from science fiction.
