Major Milestone – Neural Lace Demo (Neurolink)

 

The Verge: Elon Musk promises demo of a working Neuralink device on Friday

The Neural Lace is one of those science-fiction tropes I always felt would announce the onset of the singularity—with augmented reality, flying cars, artificial consciousness, faster than light travel, and uploading.

When I decided on the technology for Spex in my books, I wanted to go with brain-scanning, but was worried I might have been too optimistic with the rate of technological change… perhaps, as it turns out, not! 😉

Exciting! Let’s see what Friday brings!
