Neuralink, a brain technology device has been implanted in the first patient but it has been found to malfunction just few weeks after the successful surgery. This has brought to the fore once again the need to limit human interaction with certain technology especially implants.

It has been fixed. I read on some social media post. Not sure about the authenticity of the news though. But I totally agree that it is an unnecessary advancements of technology. Somewhere we have to draw a line and don't interfere too much with natural things.

@ogbenishyna I am scared that many new technologies would be abused more than being the real help. We have hands to do work. Why would we need any other part like brain or eyes to replace our hands. I can move mouse with my hands.
