TutorArc · Accepted Answer

Elon Musk announced that a 3rd person has received an implant from his brain-computer interface company Neuralink, to connect the nervous system to machines.
Statement 1 is correct: A Brain-Computer Interface (BCI) is a technology that enables direct communication between the brain and external devices, such as computers or prosthetics. BCIs read electrical signals from the brain and translate them into commands that control external systems, offering potential applications in medical treatments (e.g., for paralysis) and in enhancing human-computer interaction.

Statement 2 is correct: Brainware refers to the emerging field that combines brain organoids (small, simplified 3D structures of the brain grown in the lab) with microelectrodes to create networks that integrate living brain tissue into computational systems. This technology could open new frontiers in understanding the brain's functioning and in creating advanced bio-computing systems.
