Main article: <brain-computer interface>{full}.

This is one of the <deep tech> bets that <Ciro Santilli> would put his money in as of 2020.

How hard could it be? You just have to learn the encoding of the neural spine/eyes/ear, add an invasive device that multiplexes it, and then <The Matrix (1999)>[the benefits could be mind blowing].

<Neuralink>[Musk approves].

Interestingly and obviously, the initial advances in the area are happening for people that have hearing or vision difficulties. Since they already have a deficient sense, you don't lose that much by a failed attempt.

Hearing is likely to be the first since it feels the simplest. Ciro heard there are even already clinical applications there. TODO source.
