James\u2019 experience and technical understanding are not easily found. I think you\u2019ll find his words to be intriguing and insightful. This is one of several conversations James and I plan to have.<\/p>\n<p>We discuss:<br \/> 1. Elon\u2019s motivations for starting Neuralink.<br \/> 2. How Neuralinks will be implanted.<br \/> 3. Things Neuralink will be able to do.<br \/> 4. Important takeaways from the latest Show and Tell event.<\/p>\n<p>In future episodes, we\u2019ll dive more into:<br \/> - Neuralink\u2019s architectural decisions and plans to scale.<br \/> - The spike detection, decoding algorithms, and differences among brain regions.<br \/> - Robot\/ hardware\/ manufacturing.<br \/> - Neural shunt concept\/ future projects.<\/p>\n<p>Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.<\/p>\n<p>Neura Pod is a series covering topics related to Neuralink, Inc. Topics such as brain-machine interfaces, brain injuries, and artificial intelligence will be explored. Host Ryan Tanaka synthesizes informationopinions, and conducts interviews to easily learn about Neuralink and its future.<\/p>\n<div class=\"more-link-wrapper\"> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/lifeboat.com\/blog\/2023\/01\/neural-network-expert-explains-neuralink-in-simple-language\">Continue reading \u201cNeural network expert explains NEURALINK (in simple language)\u201d | &gt;<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>00:00 Trailer. 05:54 Tertiary brain layer. 19:49 Curing paralysis. 23:09 How Neuralink works. 33:34 Showing probes. 44:15 Neuralink will be wayyy better than prior devices. 1:01:20 Communication is lossy. 1:14:27 Hearing Bluetooth, WiFi, Starlink. 1:22:50 Animal testing &amp; brain proxies. 1:29:57 Controlling muscle units w\/ Neuralink.
