Elon Musk hopes to be able to implant microchips in the human brain from 2022 via his Neurolink company. The chip, which has already been tested on monkeys, can record and stimulate brain activity. It is intended for medical use. Initially, it could potentially enable people with physical disabilities to recover their abilities to move.

Could Neuralink chips be coming to humans in 2022? In a short interview with The Wall Street Journal at the CEO Council Summit, Elon Musk gave an update on his Neuralink project.
