Neuralink Device Helps Monkey See Something That’s Not There
Neuralink's "Blindsight" brain implant is said to have enabled a monkey to perceive non-existent objects, a step toward aiding the blind. Engineer Joseph O'Doherty stated the device stimulated visual brain areas, prompting eye movements towards "visualised" targets two-thirds of the time. Neuralink's first public data on Blindsight, a chip mimickin...
