You can back up your memory. Your brain can be controlled with a chip. Many diseases can be cured. One chip can operate your brain. It sounds strange, but it is possible. This is not a sci-fi film scene,  but Elon Musk is trying to make it a reality in the future. Elon Musk is the same businessman who lives in the US, who made the electric car a reality, who has a mission to make people settle on Mars. Elon Musk's company Neuralink has been working on human brain reading chips for the last several years. The company has experimented by putting this chip in the brains of pigs. Neuralink has demonstrated the coin size chip by putting it in the mind of a pig. A chip that can be fitted in the mind of a human being in the coming times. Through skull surgery, it can be fit in the human brain.

 

What is Neuralink? 

 

Neuralink Chip - Elon musk is the founder of Tesla and Space-X, working on a special brain chip called the Neuralink chip. Through this, you can also listen to the song without a headphone. This chip will be implanted in the human brain, with the help of which people will listen to music and stream music. With this, users can get rid of diseases like depression. 

 

How does it work? 

 

At the launch event of this chip, Elon Musk introduced the world to three such pigs, one of which had a chip in its brain, was removed by putting a chip in the other's brain, and the third one was not even teased. According to the team of Neuralink, the chip trial on pigs was successful. A pig named Gertrude had a chip stuck in his brain, thinking thoughts running in his brain could be seen on the computer through wireless signals. If the start-up is believed to have 3000 electrodes in their chip, it can read 1000 neurons of the human brain. Neuron means brain cells that give signals of movement, speech, and other activities to the rest of the body, this chip, which records signals, looks like an ECG graph.

 

The chip will control diseases. 

 

According to Elon Musk, his path-breaking chip will be able to read the human brain's signals. The backup of memory is possible, meaning memory-related diseases, spinal cord, and movement-related diseases will be cured because the brain will be controlled through this chip. Musk also believes that this chip can also cause havoc. Because, while controlling the mind, anything can be done by someone in a synthetic way. The Verge stated in its report that this device's main purpose is to help those who are troubled by neurological problems like addiction, strokes, and memory loss. Like other wearable devices, this chip will monitor the user's health and inform if anything suspicious is found. Also, Musk has claimed that it can be used for big things as well. As such, people can be equipped with AI (Artificial Intelligence) capability.

 

Challenge to be decoded. 

 

 

According to some neurosurgeons, Elon Musk's chip will easily record brain signals, but decoding them will be challenging. Because, no one has yet understood the language of 100 percent neurons.  These are only for the understanding of the rest of the cells of the human body.
