Neuralink "will start high-volume production of brain-computer interface devices" this year, said Musk in a Tuesday X post. The startup, cofounded by Musk in 2016, is developing technology that enables people to control computers using an implanted microchip. Its initial focus is on helping patients with severe neurological conditions - such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, paralysis, or sight impairment - to communicate and regain independence.
Tesla has made a major production announcement at its Chinese production facility, Giga Shanghai. The change of plans comes right after the company announced its strongest quarter in terms of deliveries in its history. On Monday, Tesla China Vice President Grace Tao announced that the production facility would begin ramping up manufacturing in preparation for an even stronger Q4. China is an extremely robust market for electric vehicles, and Tesla routinely delivers strong numbers in the sector.
