from the fun-for-the-whole-family dept

Just last month we were talking about how new evidence showed that brain controlled implants worked in the human brain, and now a company is moving forward with human brain control tests by implanting chips into the brains of people who are paralyzed people to see if they can control a computer with their thoughts. Some see this as a step forward, while others are afraid that it’s going too fast – noting that any kind of problem could set back the entire space for years.
