NeuraLink & the Neocognitive Revolution
Sep 14, 2025
NeuraLink seems poised to be one of the most important companies by the end of the century. We will soon be able to interact with our perception of reality itself. Every revolution has allowed us to change some unique aspect of our reality on a large, civilizational scale:
The early cognitive revolution allowed us to manipulate language, create myths, and create early tribes. (70,000 years ago)
The agricultural revolution allowed us to manipulate food reality. (10,000 years ago)
The urban revolution allowed us to manipulate our social and institutional reality. (7,000 to 3,000 years ago)
The religious revolutions allowed us to manipulate our spiritual reality. (3,200 to 1900 years ago)
The scientific revolutions & economic revolutions corrected the path of human civilization after the religious revolutions. Many 'microrevolutions' occurred here. Some of these microrevolutions were Europe's first printing press and markets that allowed capital to accumulate. (700 to 250 years ago)
The Industrial Revolution allowed us to manipulate our material reality. (250 years ago)
The computer revolution allowed us to manipulate our computational reality. (75 years ago)
The digital revolution allowed us to manipulate our informational reality. (25 years ago)
The AI revolution, which is taking place currently, allows us to manipulate our reasoning reality. (now)
And soon, the neocognitive revolution will allow us to manipulate our perceived reality. (7.5 to 15 years from now)
NeuraLink is the neocognitive revolution. The company is developing implantable chips to merge artificial intelligence with human thought (1, 2) This convergence of biology and machine has already begun in many ways, from paralyzed patients moving cursors with their minds to a human trial of NeuraLink’s device in 2024, to Chinese companies, with their own chips, being able to play games with their brain (5, 11). It gives us a unique solution to the alignment problem that modern AI has presented us. NeuraLink may be our solution to adapting in a future of AGI.
The Rise of Implantable Technology
For decades, humans have used technology to amplify their capabilities. From the invention of writing to Google search, each leap allowed us to offload memory and computation to external tools (7). NeuraLink is now flipping that model: instead of offloading thoughts to devices, why not internalize the power of AI, and storage, itself? It's the first time a device that we've made can be easily accessed like an organ in our body. The company's vision is to create a high-bandwidth brain-computer interface (BCI) that integrates directly with your neurons, essentially upgrading the brain. (3).
"With a high-bandwidth brain-machine interface, we will have the option to go along for the ride," Elon Musk says, showing NeuraLink as a way to achieve convergence with AI rather than be left behind like many of us fear (8). In practical terms, your neural pathways could one day communicate directly with cloud-based AI. In typical human fashion, we've found a way to accelerate ourselves with our technology, not be entirely replaced by it.
What Will It Do?
Unlike today's simple brain monitors or cochlear hearing implants, Neuralink aims to reshape the brain's functions in real time. The N1 chip NeuraLink has developed contains over a thousand ultra-fine electrodes that penetrate the cortex, recording and decoding neural signals into data at unprecedented speed (3).
Human cognition operates in natural language, abstract context, and emotions/moods. However, traditional computing requires structured input. Bridging that gap requires Neuralink to act as a real-time neural compiler, converting noisy electrochemical spikes into meaningful digital signals. This is where deep learning, with many hidden layers to instantly decode human communication, becomes vital.
Researchers even predicted that the tool would compress by months to days, allowing us to download skills or knowledge directly into memory (9). Early military studies have already shown the promise of neuro-tech for faster learning (e.g. brain stimulation halving training time for pilots) (10).
It raises a profound question: if intelligence becomes editable and upgradeable, what does it mean to be human? Ghost in the Shell dealt with this deeply. And the solution it gave? Ascension to the next level of consciousness. Think about it this way, too - humans perceive reality depending on the amount of notable information we have pegged to a significant time. Our childhoods are perceived to be the most extended periods of our lives, because of the sheer amount of new stimulation we receive. When we can rapidly understand and digest information, and possibly even perceive more, human time perception will change drastically.
When Will It Happen?
According to company projections, NeuraLink’s first real integrations for medical purposes could hit the market within five years. Neuralink expects to seek US approval to market its initial product (a thought-to-text communication device for paralyzed patients, codenamed Telepathy) by 2029. General-purpose cognitive augmentation for healthy individuals would come later. Musk himself has hinted that once safety is proven in therapeutic cases, the technology could rapidly transition to elective use, potentially within the 2030s for early adopters (12). BCIs allow users to interface with AI instantly and continuously, blurring the line between human memory and cloud intelligence.
Experts like futurist Ray Kurzweil have long predicted that genetic enhancements will follow on the heels of cyborg tech (10). Indeed, within 20 to 30 years, we could see twofold advanced humans: CRISPR and NeuraLink making superhumans, which are both genetically and technologically enhanced. Scientific groundwork is being laid: cognitive scientists such as Shulman and Bostrom have explored how selecting embryos for higher IQ could add hundreds of intelligence points over several generations (10).
Why Now?
The short answer: capitalism demands it. In a global economy governed by speed, the individual (or company, or nation, that can think faster and learn more has an edge (8). Brain implants that boost cognition promise higher productivity and enormous economic value. Musk often frames Neuralink's mission in competitive terms: AI is growing ever more powerful, so to avoid being left obsolete, humans must upgrade themselves (10). As generative AI and automation permeate every industry, simply having human intelligence may no longer be enough.
Human evolution is no longer dictated by natural selection, but economic selection. Market forces are now driving the next stage of human augmentation. We've already seen early signs of this pressure: elite students and workers worldwide use nootropics and AI tools to gain any mental edge, ignoring long-term gains for short-term ones. Tell me a time when our economy has done the same? Wait… wasn’t that always?
How Will It Work?
Neuralink's current approach requires surgical implants. These implants consist of microelectrode threads inserted into specific brain regions. The first target is the motor cortex (which controls movement), which is used to capture and translate neural signals for intended motions into computer commands (1). Each tiny electrode can detect electrical spikes from nearby neurons. A custom chip embedded in the skull wirelessly transmits this neural data to a computer, where machine learning algorithms interpret the patterns in real time (2) In essence, the device listens to your brain's electrical language, and an AI decodes it into action, whether moving a cursor or, in the future, perhaps controlling a drone or a robotic limb.
Over time, these interactions are expected to become seamless. The eventual goal is a bi-directional interface: reading brain signals and writing information back into the brain (4).
NeuraLink’s AI pipeline likely relies on convolutional neural networks (CNNs) and recurrent architectures (for example, LSTMs, GRUs) to detect spatiotemporal patterns in the neural stream. These models are trained using supervised and self-supervised learning, minimizing a loss function that quantifies the error between predicted intentions and the real intention. Over time, the system learns to classify and pre-empt motor or linguistic intent based on probabilistic representations. Because of how unique everyone’s brain is, we will need custom encoder-decoder models. We may need to make a neural network to predict the best base encoder-decoder model to put on somebody. This is where psychology, and personality theory, can come in handy.
The Neocognitive Revolution:
The promise is immense. A brain-AI union might enable scientific and creative breakthroughs at an unprecedented scale. Imagine teams of augmented humans connected brain-to-brain, pooling their knowledge instantly (the "cognitive multiverse" some have envisioned). But the risks are just as real. First, there are the personal risks: Who controls the AI algorithms plugged into our most private organs? If a corporation or government can influence the data going into your head, the threat to autonomy is extreme. Experts warn about scenarios of hacking and misuse; a malicious actor could potentially access your thoughts or insert false ones if the system's security fails (8). This alignment plot has been used repeatedly, such as with Ghost in the Shell and Inception. Neural data is intensely personal; breaches or "brainjacking" could make today's privacy concerns over social media seem trivial. There are also knotty questions of ethics and governance: Who decides what kinds of cognitive enhancement are allowed? A direct brain interface also raises new dilemmas about free will and identity (e.g., if an AI co-processor suggests an action, whose decision was yours or the machine's?).
Societally, the advent of widespread neuro-enhancement could trigger the most profound global realignment since the Industrial Revolution. Nations investing in brain-boosting tech (or genetically boosting their populations) might leap ahead economically and militarily (8). There will likely be a stratification like a caste system: an upgraded "post-human" elite, called (bear with me) Homo cyberneticus, and an underclass of unenhanced Homo sapiens (12). The unenhanced, Harari's feared "useless class" could be deemed obsolete, not due to lack of effort but simply lack of neural upgrades. This has raised alarms about a new form of eugenics-by-technology, where access to enhancement (or cultural willingness to adopt it) could marginalize whole groups.
And yet, despite these risks, one insight from evolutionary psychology offers a counterpoint: humans are wired for survival, not for giving up. We have an innate drive to improve our odds when faced with a threat. We also have an innate drive to help each other, as seen with charity. Over time, humans tend to help other humans.
Faced with the rise of AI, humanity may not allow itself to be overtaken; instead, we will do what's necessary to stay ahead by merging with our creations. It's a bet that we can integrate AI into ourselves faster than AI can wholly replace us (10). Whether that bet pays off or backfires is arguably the defining challenge of this century.
How Neuralink (and other BCIs) redefine everything
We face two core assumptions to make. Not a red pill or a blue pill. But two even starker ones:
Pill One: This is the death of work. Most jobs vanish as AI and neural interfaces automate knowledge, creativity, and decision-making. You're either enhanced or economically irrelevant. The labour market collapses into an elite class of upgraded hyper-performers and a bottom tier of the cognitively disconnected, supported, barely, by UBI or ignored entirely. Culture splinters. The economic system fractures.
Pill Two: This is the rebirth of work into something unrecognizable. Yes, the old careers die. But entirely new forms of labour emerge, jobs that no human in history has ever conceptualized. Roles based on new mental architectures, new senses, and new inter-brain communication. Sam Altman wrote:
"A subsistence farmer from a thousand years ago would look at what many of us do and say we have fake jobs and think that we are just playing games to entertain ourselves since we have plenty of food and unimaginable luxuries. I hope we will look at the jobs a thousand years in the future and think they are very fake jobs, and I have no doubt they will feel incredibly important and satisfying to the people doing them."
The Industrial Revolution introduced machines to augment muscle. The computer and digital revolutions extended our computation and memory. Neural interfaces are the next leap: they augment thought itself. But once cognition evolves, literally, the very nature of how we perceive opportunity, effort, value, and identity will shift. And that is unpredictable. But also, it can be beautiful.
The Final Word
If Neuralink and its competitors succeed, the 21st century won't just be the age of artificial intelligence. Instead, it will be the age when we became the metaphorical “Space Baby” from 2001: A Space Odyssey. We may live to see a world where children outfitted with neural implants or gene tweaks, who can out-think their parents by age ten, and an AI "brain buddy" is as routine as having a smartphone (4). In such a world, the source of wisdom may shift from years of lived experience to bandwidth and data access.
The very definition of learning and skill could be upended when knowledge can be acquired at the speed of thought, and our perception of time may change. We stand on the brink of a transformation as profound as any in our species' history. The brain, once the private realm of individual consciousness, is becoming the new frontier of innovation. And perhaps the final frontier of the human mind is not an end at all, maybe it is just the beginning, just like when we discovered fire (6).
One thing is sure: the coming era of brain-machine convergence will force us to redefine what it means to be human, opening possibilities that were once the stuff of science fiction and challenging us to keep this humanity intact in the face of God-like upgrades.
