Inside Elon Musk’s Plan to connect Human Brain to Computers using a tiny implant

What used to happen in movies is about to be achieved in reality, as Tesla and Space X CEO Elon Musk is on the process to develop a direct interface between human brain and computing devices. The main aim of his project is to merge human beings with AI.
Very soon human freedom will be a thing of the past as governments or giant corporations will be able to control people’s brains using cloud and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Musk launched Neuralink Corp in July 2016 with the aim to create “ultra-high bandwidth brain-machine interface to link humans to computers." The initial goal of his project was to assuage signs of chronic medical conditions. 
The futurist billionaire announced the plan to connect human brains to computers, on July 2019. He had planned to implant the first prototype by the end of 2020. Musk started testing his program on animals and he confirmed that a monkey was able to control the computer with its brain.
In 2020 Neuralink broadcasted a live demonstration of a working gadget. Musk claimed that the technology could be useful to people with neural disorders and predicted that it could also be used to enable human “symbiosis with artificial intelligence.”
In an interview with The New York Times, scientists from Neuralink suggested that they would use a laser beam to access the skull, rather than drilling holes. Neuralink implant could be applied to people who are paralyzed to enable them control phones or computers.

Kenyans surprised over UDA's 'Voters Repair' remarks for President Ruto 2027 reelection

 Kenyans are reacting strongly to remarks by some UDA leaders that many interpret as hints at election manipulation ("ukarabati ya kura" / "voters repair") ahead of the 2027 presidential election. What Happened On or around May 23, 2026, NTV Kenya and other outlets aired footage from a UDA meeting at Kakamega Deputy Governor Ayub Savula's home.  Leaders including Savula and MP Charles Gimose reportedly used phrases like "tutafanya ukarabati ya kura" (we will repair/do maintenance on the votes).  Some comments referenced high victory margins in places like Tanzania under Samia Suluhu or Museveni-style wins. This has been widely seen as implying plans to "fix" or pad results in favor of President William Ruto's reelection, rather than a literal call for better voter registration or system maintenance. Public Reaction 1. Surprise and outrage: Many Kenyans on X and social media expressed shock, viewing it as arrogant or desperate signaling am...

How to commercialize your prototype innovation in Kenya

Protect Your Intellectual Property (IP) Before commercialization, safeguard your innovation to prevent copying. In Kenya, IP protection is handled by the Kenya Industrial Property Institute (KIPI). Register your IP : File for patents, trademarks, copyrights, or industrial designs. Patents are crucial for inventions and provide a 20-year monopoly.  Start with a patent search to ensure novelty, then apply via KIPI's online portal. Costs range from KSh 3,000–50,000 depending on the type. Why...
