Thanks to a system Neuralink in braina man unable to move and speak due to the Amiotrophic lateral sclerosis (SLA) he succeeded for the first time a Making a video for YouTube with the thoughtdubbing him with his own voice cloned by artificial intelligence. The result was rested on X by the same company as Elon Musk.

For years The man had been forced to communicate using a eye pointerbut the device offered limited possibility and it only worked in dark environments In order to correctly trace the movement of the eyes.
Everything has changed with the‘chip systemoneComputer-Cervello interface as big as one currency That through more than a thousand electrodes reads theneurons activities then communicating it to computer street Bluetooth. The device can read the activity of the neurons that control i movementsthus allowing the patient to move a cursor on the computer with the thought: Initially Brad imagined moving his hand to control the cursor, but in the end he discovered that it was more effective to imagine moving the tongue to check the cursor and then tighten the jaw to click.
