Musk's forefoot just said "the brain has uploaded the clouds", and the rear foot of the brain interface company Neuralink, another co -founder, left

According to Reuters reported on July 19, two people familiar with the matter said that Tesla (TSLA, a stock price of US $ 736.59, a market value of $ 763.395 billion) CEO Elon Musk's brainstone interface company, the founding member of NEURALINK, Paul Merola ( Paul Merolla has left recently.

On the same day, Musk said on Twitter's question on Twitter's question of Billy Marcus, the founder of the dog coin, and said that he had uploaded his brain to the cloud and had talked with his virtual version. This remark immediately attracted the attention of many people, but Musk did not give more details. It is speculated that Musk may refer to its company Neuralink.

Ramela is one of the founders of Neuralink and has made a lot of contributions to the company's chip design project. Before joining Neuralink, Merlora was an IBM (IBM, a stock price of $ 130.88, and a market value of $ 117.718 billion).

Neuralink has not issued a statement on Ramela's departure, and the reason for the resignation of Romerla and its future career planning are unknown. Merlola and Musk did not comment on the incident.

Reuters insider said that there were 8 people who helped build Neuralink six years ago, including Vannessa Tolosa, an expert from biochemical compatibility materials, and Timothy Gardner ( Timothy Gardner) and Brain and Cognitive Science Expert Philip Sabes. After Musk's departure, only one founding member was still working, that is, the chip implantation engineer Dongjin SEO.

Neuralink's management has been turbulent in recent years. On May 2 last year, Max Hodak, co -founder and president of Neuralink, announced on Twitter that he had left from Neuralink. Since then, Hodak has set up a new company called Science Corp, and at the same time, he has dug away some of the top Neuralink employees.

Neuralink was founded in 2016, and the company has been committed to studying brain -machine interface technology. Existing brain interfaces are generally divided into invasive and non -intrusive interfaces. Neuralink's research generally belongs to the former. It needs to be implanted with tiny electrodes in the brain and uses current to "interact" computers and brain cells.

In 2019, Neurink released its first product, working like a "sewing machine". This product first uses lasers to drill on the skull, and then plant a 1/4 thin line of hair in the brain, and can avoid the cerebral blood vessels. The entire process can be reduced as much as possible.

In August 2020, Musk showed people the first product that could "enter the human body" -The Link V 0.9. This product has a very small size, easy to implant, and has been improved by hundreds of times.

While launching a new brain interface, Neuralink also developed a new version of surgical robot. This machine scans the brain structure and be careful to avoid the dangerous areas, so the implantation process will not cause damage to the brain. In order to verify the effect of Neuralink, researchers implanted the above equipment in pigs.

In April 2021, Neuralink released a video of a nine -year -old macaque Page Page played by brain chip. Musk said: "6 weeks ago, two brain machine interface devices were implanted in Pager's brain. After training, it could use the brain to control the cursor to move on the screen."

Earlier this year, "Fortune" magazine reported that Musk said the device would allow the computer to return the information back to the brain. According to Russia in January today, Neuralink has begun to publicly recruit clinical trial personnel to conduct human experiments on the "brain -machine interface" technology and implant brain chip into the human body.

In fact, Musk said in 2021 that Neuralink plans to plant its chips in the human body in 2022, but as of now, it has not been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
