A fifth patient has been implanted with the Neuralink chip backed by Elon Musk. The military veteran RJ, also known as P5, suffered a spinal cord injury after a motorcycle accident and is without the use of his arms or legs. Since the surgery in April at the U of Miami, a chip the size of a small coin was implanted in his brain, RJ has been able to control his computer and smartphone with his brain. "I think my favorite thing has been to turn on my TV," RJ said. He also says it gave him his spark back, his drive back.
