“The first human received an implant from @Neuralink yesterday and is recovering well. Initial results show promising neuron spike detection.”

“Successful 100 days with first human implant of @Neuralink”

“Update about the second Neuralink device in a human. If all goes well, there will be hundreds of people with Neuralinks within a few years, maybe tens of thousands within 5 years, millions within 10 years, …”

“The first human patient will soon receive a Neuralink device. This ultimately has the potential to restore full body movement. In the long term, Neuralink hopes to play a role in AI risk civilizational risk reduction by improving human to AI (and human to human) bandwidth by…”

“Robots will surpass good human surgeons within a few years and the best human surgeons within ~5 years. @Neuralink had to use a robot for the brain-computer electrode insertion, as it was impossible for a human to achieve the required speed and precision. [@MarioNawfal] 🚨 ROBOTS CAN NOW HELP WITH SURGERY — AND THEY’RE ACTUALLY GOOD AT IT Medtronic tested its Hugo robot in 137 real surgeries — fixing prostates, kidneys, and bladders — and the results were better than doctors expected. Complication rates were super low: just 3.7% for prostate”

“Most people don’t understand that their minds can be taken over by a virus, just like a computer virus takes over your computer. The woke mind virus is like Cordyceps. [@SwipeWright] Gender ideology parasitized people's brains and turned them into seemingly rabid versions of their former selves. This is how one of my very closest friends (at the time) responded to my article debunking the "sex spectrum" in 2020, including my responses. Many years of… )”

“Same person [@WallStreetApes] Barack Obama's ICE chief gets an award for 920,000 removals Donald Trump’s ICE chief gets called a Nazi It’s the same person, Tom Homan In 2012 Obama deported 409,000 people In 2025 Trump deported 290,000 people THE DIFFERENCE IS THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA BRAINWASHING”

“Back to working 7 days a week and sleeping in the office if my little kids are away [@iam_smx] Wartime CEO Engaged. "7 days a week sleeping in the factory, No one should put these many hours into work, this is not good, this is very painful, it hurts my brain and my heart." -Elon Musk”

“@PPathole @Tesla @SpaceX @neuralink @boringcompany I do love humanity”

“Tesla has by far the most advanced real-world AI. No one else is even close. Join us @Tesla_AI! [@YunTaTsai1] Sometimes I am still pondering on the fact that Tesla, a car company, would decide to create its own brain six years ago. Not for playing games, but to solve the hardest holy grail in human history — full autonomy. Still sounds crazy, even today.”

“Neuralink enables those who have lost the ability to speak to speak again [@KatiePavlich] Last night I spoke with Brad Smith @ALScyborg, the first person with ALS to have @neuralink implanted. He has his voice back through AI and can even make dad jokes again. Absolutely incredible technology changing lives and bettering humanity. Thank you @elonmusk!”

“Congrats to the @Neuralink team for helping many people who have lost use of their body with our Telepathy implant that enables computer use simply by thinking! The next generation Neuralink cybernetic augment with 3X capability will be ready later this year. Pending regulatory… https://t.co/pTSvj0F7qK https://x.com/i/web/status/2016575739655504070 [@neuralink] We now have 21 participants enrolled in trials worldwide. Check out how our Neuralnauts are driving BCI technology forward. http://neuralink.com/updates/two-years-of-telepathy/”

“She is controlling her computer just by thinking. Most people don’t realize this is possible. [@BigImpactHumans] Neuralink recipient writes her name for the first time in 20 years telepathically ❤️”

“Grok 4.20 is getting good at engineering [@DrPhiltill] Wow. Just used Grok 4.20 beta to brainstorm space program ideas. Note: I've been developing similar programs for many years and have deep intel into this world, but Grok blew me away with fresh, actionable concepts. When ppl say AI can't create new ideas, they're wrong. 1/2”

“Video Killed the Radio Star [@PeterDiamandis] The human brain processes visual information 60,000x faster than text. Humans are visual processors, not text processors. Images hit the brain instantly. Words take work. That's why a single SpaceX launch video communicates more than a thousand-word essay—and why your slide decks”

“That is the goal [@aerocopz] Elon Musk @elonmusk shows how his companies work for the benefit of humanity: "SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink, and The Boring Company are philanthropy. If you say philanthropy is love of humanity, they are philanthropy. Tesla is accelerating sustainable energy; this is philanthropy.”

“Please consider working at Neuralink! Short-term: solve brain/spine injuries Long-term: human/AI symbiosis Latter will be species-level important Work at either at our Bay Area or Austin locations”

“Companies are flooding out of Delaware, because the activist chief judge of the Delaware court has no respect for shareholder rights [@MarioNawfal] 🚨BILL ACKMAN MOVES HIS FIRM FROM DELAWARE TO NEVADA Ackman said top law firms are now recommending Nevada and Texas over Delaware as incorporation hubs. This shift follows a trend set by Elon, who recently moved Tesla, SpaceX, and Neuralink’s incorporation out of Delaware.… )”

“Well-articulated analysis of @Neuralink. Important edit: bit rate and patient number will increase hyperexponentially over the next 5+ years. My guess is combined I/O Bit rate > 1Mbs and augmented humans >1M by 2030.”

“Noland might be the first to receive a Neuralink upgrade and/or dual Neuralink implant to further augment his abilities. It won’t be long before a Neuralink recipient can beat most and eventually all humans at fast reaction video games. [@MarioNawfal] NEURALINK MADE HIM THE FIRST PATIENT - NOW HE’S UNSTOPPABLE 21 months after becoming the first human to receive a Neuralink implant, Nolan Arbaugh isn’t just typing with his mind, he’s taking pre-calc, studying neuroscience, and launching a speaking career. Paralyzed from the”

“Technology progress is a jagged exponential [@PeterDiamandis] Our brains are hardwired for linear expectations. 30 linear steps get you across the room. 30 exponential steps take you 26 times around the planet. The gap between those two numbers is where disruption happens.”

“Incredibly unjust [@amuse] LAWFARE: Why do Democrats work so hard to ensure violent murders remain on the street? Democrat DA Steve Wolfson gave Christian Rabino probation and six weeks of anger management after he admitted to beating a 17-month-old to death breaking his legs and causing his brain and eyes… https://x.com/i/web/status/2011871346821574684”

“@ashleevance We are now confident that the Neuralink device is ready for humans, so timing is a function of working through the FDA approval process”

“@wintonARK What will be left for us humans to do? We better get a move on with Neuralink!”

“With our little 20 Watt meat computers [@teslaownersSV] "I'm glad to say that the Starship mission was done entirely with human brains without any use of AI The future of AI might look at that and say not bad for bunch of monkeys." Elon Musk )”

“🚀 [@dustinvtran] I departed Google DeepMind after 8 years. So many fond memories—from early foundational papers in Google Brain (w/ @noamshazeer @ashvaswani @lukaszkaiser on Image Transformer, Tensor2Tensor, Mesh TensorFlow) to lead Gemini posttraining evals to catch up & launch in 100 days, then”

“@iamharaldur Those are the right questions to ask. They have been troubling me for many years. Neuralink was created as a possible long-term solution to human+AI symbiosis.”

“@hamoon__ @neuralink Neuralink is working super hard to ensure implant safety & is in close communication with the FDA. If things go well, we might be able to do initial human trials later this year.”

“Try the @Grok app! [@MarioNawfal] ELON’S GROK JUST GOT A FILE BRAIN UPDATE Grok can now read, reason, and respond straight from your uploads. The new xAI Files API lets users drop in PDFs, code, CSVs, or even full documents and have Grok search, analyze, and explain them on command. Think of it as giving”

“You can sense the sentience maturing [@DrJimFan] I was very late to own a Tesla but among the earliest to try out FSD v14. It's perhaps the first time I experience an AI that passes the Physical Turing Test: after a long day at work, you press a button, lay back, and couldn't tell if a neural net or a human drove you home.… https://x.com/i/web/status/2003593613918531891”

“@Teslarati @ResidentSponge If you’ve engineered or manufactured smart watches or phones, please join Neuralink! Your skills are directly applicable.”

“@Jon4Lakers @Tesla Neural net upgrades coming that improve persistence across time & space (better object permanence)”

“A prior track record of exceptional achievement in engineering *is* required, but *no* prior experience working on the brain or human physiology is required. We will teach you what’s known about the brain, which is not much tbh.”

“Tesla Autopilot vision neural net now working well. Just need to get a lot of road time to validate in a wide range of environments.”

“@cb_doge @neuralink I should mention that the Blindsight implant is already working in monkeys. Resolution will be low at first, like early Nintendo graphics, but ultimately may exceed normal human vision. (Also, no monkey has died or been seriously injured by a Neuralink device!)”

“@Model3Owners It’s a quintillion (10^18) floating point operations per second – enough to simulate a human brain”

“@MarioNawfal This may sound crazy, but I am coming around to liking @BernieSanders. Our views as to how to best serve humanity are different, but he seems authentic in his desire to do so. Btw, Neuralink will ultimately help tens of millions of people with serious brain or spine issues.…”

“@Tesla Whether you plan to buy a Dual Motor Performance Model 3 or not, take it for a test drive anyway. It’s like having pure fun jacked straight into your brain whenever you want.”

“@neuralink @shivon Great review! Neuralink is open to working with neuroscientists to advance the field. Short-term goal is addressing brain & spine problems. Ultimate goal is symbiosis of human & machine intelligence.”

“@AviSchiffmann Neuralink”

“@teslaownersSV @Teslarati @JohnnaCrider1 Many small things. We’re starting to make use of neural nets for vehicle navigation & control, not just vision.”

“@Gfilche @neuralink Human output data rate is absurdly low”

“@PPathole @Tesla @SpaceX @neuralink @boringcompany I’m trying my hardest! Perhaps more people might consider loving humanity. Our collective light of consciousness is a tiny candle in a vast darkness. Please do not let it go out.”

“@teslaownersSV @jonmcneill Just like AI, human neural net training takes a long time, but inference (applying the knowledge) is relatively easy”

“@SmokeAwayyy Optimus limbs, replacing lost human limbs, could ultimately be controlled with superhuman dexterity by an implanted Neuralink. Deus Ex / Cyberpunk irl.”

“@Austen What I mean is that there won’t be code at all. Neural nets will generate the pixels, acoustics and actuator command. Any input bitstream to any output bitstream.”

“@ibab @xai Very interesting to learn the details. One day, @Neuralink will greatly enhance human I/O bandwidth.”

“@Tesmanian_com Award accepted on behalf of the great people at Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink & Boring Co”

“@MarcusHouse This is not much consolation, but Neuralink is working on a vision chip, which will be ready in a few years. That is the next area after enabling phone/computer telepathy for those who have lost their mind-body connection. We waiting for regulatory approval for our first human.”

“Creating a neural lace is the thing that really matters for humanity to achieve symbiosis with machines”
