NEURALINK RIVAL PRECISION NEUROSCIENCE RAISES $250 MILLION Brain-computer interface startup Precision Neuroscience closed an oversubscribed $250M Series D, co-led by Bill Ackman’s Pershing Square and the Ackman Oxman Institute. The round brings total funding to ~$430M. Precision, co-founded by former Neuralink co-founder Ben Rapoport, is developing its Layer 7 brain interface to let people with paralysis control digital devices using their thoughts. The company has now completed 100+ patient procedures across 18 major medical centers.

Neuralink just showed another huge step with its VOICE trial Terry is using his Neuralink implant to help fine-tune a brain-to-voice interface for himself and others who can’t speak He first trained the algorithm by miming speech as best he could Now he can simply think the words....and hear them come out in his own natural voice And the voice is powered by Grok Voice from SpaceXAI Neuralink reads the intent from the brain Grok Voice turns it into natural speech Thought → voice Two Elon companies working together to give people their voice back This is absolutely incredible

Neuralink Study Participant Audrey’s story is absolutely incredible: - A spinal cord injury at age 16 left her paralyzed from the neck down for over 20 years. - In July 2025, she became the first female participant in Neuralink’s clinical trials. - Neuralink’s Telepathy implant uses 128 threads in her motor cortex to turn brain signals into computer commands. - It lets her control a computer cursor with her thoughts. - She wrote her name for the first time in two decades and now spends hours creating colorful digital art. - She founded NeuraArt Studio to share and sell her work. - You can support Audrey’s inspiring journey and explore her artwork here: “When I’m moving that cursor, that’s me. That’s part of my body.” Neuralink is changing lives. ❤️

Neuralink is the most transformative technology of our time Thoughts are becoming actions now People who thought they would never walk again are now playing games, controlling a computer, driving a wheelchair, and eating on their own Neuralink is literally giving them a second chance at life

Neuralink is one of the greatest technological breakthroughs of our time. A woman paralyzed from the neck down is creating paintings just by thinking. Patients are controlling wheelchairs and moving a robotic arm just by thinking.

Neuralink enables Audrey Crews to create art with her thoughts. Paralyzed from the neck down in a car crash at 16, she is drawing again after 20 years. Absolutely incredible. 🧠

Neuralink has introduced a new careers page. Love how they lay out the kinds of applicants that they want and don't want: "OUR VALUES How we actually operate: • Focus on the user: Every decision traces back to the people who depend on this technology. Their outcomes are the only metric that can't be argued with. • Think from first principles: Reason from physics and evidence instead of precedent. • Deliver urgently without compromise: Speed and rigor aren't trade-offs here. The work has to be fast because people are waiting, and right because it ships into human beings. • Demand excellence: The bar is the best work of your life. Hold it for yourself and expect it from the person next to you. • Act with kindness: Direct feedback, hard problems, decent humans. Brilliance is not an excuse. WHO SHOULD NOT APPLY This job isn’t for everyone: • You enjoy the comfort of a 9-to-5: The pace is intense. People are waiting on this technology, and our schedule reflects that. • You need certainty before you're willing to start: We're building without precedent. If the standard approach worked, this would already exist. • You want to own one layer and hand off the rest: Problems cross silicon, robotics, and biology. Follow yours until it works in a human being. • You prefer remote work: The lab, the robot, and your teammates are in the building. So is the job. • You expect seniority to win arguments: The best idea wins here, whoever it comes from. Bring evidence, not tenure." Neuralink has 76 open jobs:

Neuralink is now testing something that could completely change life for people with paralysis: Controlling a powered wheelchair using only their thoughts The implant uses more than 1,000 electrodes across over 100 ultra-thin threads placed in the motor cortex These electrodes detect the neural activity produced when a participant intends to move A machine-learning system then translates those signals into cursor movements, allowing the participant to drive forward, reverse, steer and even adjust the wheelchair’s seating position.....without moving their hands Participants can also use a live video feed from a wheelchair-mounted camera to navigate real-world environments There is still more testing ahead, and the device remains investigational, but the direction is extraordinary Neuralink is not just simply helping people control a computer It is working toward restoring independence, mobility and freedom to people who lost them
