马斯克表示,Neuralink脑机接口技术可实现“耶稣级别”的奇迹:帮助脑或脊柱损伤患者恢复说话(已实现)、让失明或天生盲人通过直接刺激大脑视觉中枢重获视力、以及让瘫痪者重新行走。他称这些能力为“赛博格超能力”,并认为对脑损伤患者具有重要意义。
ELON MUSK: When technologies like Neuralink are hitting like Jesus-level miracles, you know, that's pretty good. I think some kind of brain-machine interface that can give you cybernetic superpowers is probably good. It could help people that have brain or spine injuries, restore, enable people who've never spoken for years to speak again, which we've done, give people eyesight who have lost both eyes or the optic nerve, or maybe have never even seen at all blind from birth.
By direct interface to the optical centers in the brain, you can actually restore eyesight or give people eyesight that they've never had before, and you can enable people to walk again, which I think is profound. I mean, these are kind of Jesus-level things.
