The latest developments of Neuralink are worth paying attention to—by 2026, brain-machine interface chips are expected to be mass-produced. More importantly, the surgical procedures have already achieved automation and minimally invasive techniques, which means the implantation process will be greatly simplified.

Imagine the future scenario: in just a few years, we might actually be able to install a chip in our brains that directly connects to an AI assistant. This is not just science fiction; the industrialization timetable is already in sight.

From an application perspective, once brain-machine interfaces become widespread, the way humans interact with AI will be fundamentally changed. For example, large models like Grok may no longer rely on screens and keyboards, but instead enable more intuitive information exchange through neural interfaces. This will have a profound impact on content creation, data processing, and creative work.

Of course, maturity of technology, safety standards, and ethical frameworks still need time to develop. But what is certain is that the pace of moving brain-machine interfaces from the laboratory to the market is accelerating. This time, it’s really not a distant future.

Chips directly connected to AI in the brain? Man, isn't this Black Mirror storyline? Mass production by 2026, I really can't handle it anymore.

No, we still have to wait until it’s actually sold. Who dares to be the first to try this risky surgery? --- The idea of implanting chips in the brain sounds crazy, but when the industrialization timeline is actually laid out, it’s a bit hard to believe. --- Grok directly connecting to the brain? Let’s wait until safety standards and ethical frameworks are clarified first. --- Mass production in 2026? I’m skeptical; medical approval doesn’t happen that quickly. --- Minimally invasive procedures are impressive, but the key question is who’s willing to stuff something into their brain. --- Connecting AI directly to creative work? That sounds a bit terrifying... --- It’s the kind of technology that “looks close but is actually still early.” --- Mass production is one thing, but actual application scenarios are another matter altogether.

Damn, 26 years to mass produce? That's a bit outrageous, still have to wait and see again and again. Putting chips in your brain, I'm really a bit scared... Can safety really be guaranteed? But on the other hand, if it really can connect directly to AI assistants, then creative efficiency will skyrocket... Just thinking about it makes me excited. Minimally invasive surgery automation is indeed an advancement, but I wouldn't dare learn from the first group of pioneers haha. It's already 2026, and it feels like major capital is pouring money wildly; this track has long ceased to be niche. To be honest, compared to brain-computer interfaces, I'm more concerned about what impact it will have on the market... The start of a new round of "cutting leeks"?

Oh my god, 2026 is about to start mass production? This time it's really not just hype, the minimally invasive surgery step is indeed crucial. Having chips directly connected to AI in your brain, just thinking about it is incredible. Why would we still need keyboards in the future? But honestly, if this technology becomes truly widespread, what about privacy issues... Once the idea comes up, your brain might be read instantly. We should wait before getting on board; don't rush the safety standards and ethical framework, or else your brain might get hacked. Neuralink is serious this time, the crypto world should keep an eye on it. By the way, models like Grok will need to be heavily optimized when the time comes, or else even the fastest brain interfaces won't be useful. It feels like the next wealth secret is coming; hardware innovation always brings profit. But I'm still a bit hesitant—let others try first, and we'll observe.

Whoa, brains filled with chips? Isn't this a sci-fi movie? How come it's about to be mass-produced... But on the other hand, if it can really connect directly to Grok, that would be awesome, so I don't have to keep staring at the screen. Security needs to be carefully managed; otherwise, if our brains get hacked, it would be even more despairing. I'm a bit scared—will it become just a toy for the rich again? We, the common folks, still have to use keyboards. Wait, if this becomes widespread, our group of programmers will have to reshuffle the job market. 2026 is coming? Really? It feels like the research was only published a few years ago. By the way, the first batch of pioneers was really brave. I need to see if anyone has already used it before I decide.

Wow, mass production by 2026? Elon Musk isn't just talking nonsense this time... Directly installing AI into the brain, so maybe I can do anything I want in the future? A bit excited and a bit scared. It's really coming, no longer science fiction, oh my. If this technology becomes widespread, as a keyboard warrior I might really lose my job haha. They've already perfected minimally invasive surgery, but how do they ensure safety? Won't they mess up my brain? Seriously asking. Wait, does that mean there's no privacy for the thoughts in our brains? A bit terrifying to think about... Grok directly connects to the brain, just thinking about it is exciting, but what about regulations? I just want to know if the first people to try it will become guinea pigs. It's called the future in a nice way, but in a harsh way, isn't it just chip implantation? What about moral scrutiny? I kind of want to wait and see, but I'm also afraid of being left behind by the times... If this really happens, humanity might truly evolve.
