Biotech Firm Implants Brain Chips in Dozens, Offers Hope for Ailments.

Blackrock Neurotech, a biotech company in Utah, has implanted brain chips in over 50 people, curing various ailments and disabilities, beating Elon Musk's Neuralink, which is still waiting for FDA approval to start testing on humans. The NeuroPort Array chip enables individuals to control robotic limbs and wheelchairs, play video games, and even sense feelings. Blackrock is seeking FDA approval for devices designed for use outside of the lab, such as those used by people with paralysis at home. The company is already working on brain-computer connections that will help restore hearing and vision.
