Neuralink pārliecinoši rāda priekšzīmi [1][2] tam, kā jābūvē smadzeņu-datoru interfeisus. Publikācija apraksta tikai agrīnu koncepta demonstratoru ar virkni skaidri iezīmētu tālāku uzlabojumu, bet jau tas vien ir daudz iespaidīgāks par visiem iepriekšējiem lielo projektu gala rezultātiem, kopā ņemtiem (pie tam ar tikai nepilnu 3 gadu ilgu R&D fāzi).

We have built arrays of small and flexible electrode “threads”, with as many as 3,072 electrodes per array distributed across 96 threads. We have also built a neurosurgical robot capable of inserting six threads (192 electrodes) per minute. Each thread can be individually inserted into the brain with micron precision for avoidance of surface vasculature and targeting specific brain regions. The electrode array is packaged into a small implantable device that contains custom chips for low-power on-board amplification and digitization.
