Elon Musk claims Neuralink’s first human patient with the company’s creepy brain chip implant can now move a computer mouse cursor using just their thoughts.
Business Insider reports that last month, Neuralink implanted its first computer chip into a human patient’s brain. Now, company founder Elon Musk says the patient has recovered fully and can move a computer mouse cursor simply by thinking.

Musk made the claims during an X/Twitter Spaces session on Monday, stating “Progress is good, and the patient seems to have made a full recovery, with neural effects that we are aware of. Patient is able to move a mouse around the screen by just thinking.”
Neuralink’s creepy brain chip, now given the name Telepathy, aims to enable recipients to control devices like phones or computers with their minds. While the company is still working to refine the technology, this first human trial marks a major milestone.
Musk said Neuralink is focused on allowing the patient to move the cursor more precisely, as well as click and hold buttons through thought alone. “We’re trying to get as many button presses as possible from thinking, so that’s what we’re currently working on,” he commented.
