Elon Musk‘s brain-computer interface company Neuralink has taken a significant step in the fields of medicine and technology by implanting a chip into the brain of a paralyzed man, Noland Arbaugh. Arbaugh demonstrated that he could control various activities from using social media to playing video games solely with his thoughts. Recently, on Joe Rogan’s podcast, Arbaugh mentioned that the Neuralink chip could especially revolutionize playing video games.
Neuralink Chip Could Have an Aimbot-Like Function for Games
He mentioned that the implant acts like an aimbot in games, automating targeting to simplify gameplay. Arbaugh stated that the chip is very successful and fast at targeting, but this might make it difficult for players to adapt to the chip. He also suggested that special leagues should be established for competitive games using this technology.
The chip has not yet been tested in popular FPS games like Fortnite or Call of Duty, but Arbaugh emphasized that the performance of the chip in such games is eagerly anticipated. The impact of Neuralink’s success on the gaming world has become a major topic of curiosity.
