TL;DR: Pager learned how to play pong at an insane difficulty (better than most humans) using his brain via Neuralink.
Mindblowing.https://t.co/pGMHtohZpLI remember writing this thread on Neuralink’s work with Pager the monkey a year ago. TL;DR: Pager learned how to play pong at an insane difficulty (better than most humans) using his brain via Neuralink. Mindblowing.
