Imagine being trapped inside your own body, unable to speak, move or even see, while your mind remains intact, for millions of people with ACB, seizures, ALS, or blindness, this is not a metaphor, it is reality. Now, researchers say they have created something that can finally open that cell directly to AI.

Scientists at Columbia University, in collaboration with the Stanford Enigma project, presented a new type of brain-computer interface called BISC, an ultra-thin wireless implant, the size of a postage stamp. According to engineer Ken Shepard, one of the project leaders, the biggest problem with current interfaces is simple, they are too large, too invasive and too limited to truly free patients trapped in their own body.

The BISC solves this using the same logic that transformed giant computers into semiconductor smartphones, the implant is made of a single silicon chip just 50 micrometers thick, thinner than a hair, capable of curving and adhering directly to the surface of the brain without piercing it.

It contains more than 65,000 electrodes, thousands of recording and stimulation channels, all integrated into a single chip, without cables, without internal batteries, without passing through brain tissue, which reduces inflammation and signal loss over time. The most impressive thing is that the BISC connects the brain to computers that use artificial intelligence to decode thoughts, intentions, movements and mental states almost instantly.

And for researchers, this goes far beyond treating neurological diseases, the same technology can completely change the way humans interact with machines, computers and intelligent systems. And no more, keyboards, screens or voice, just intention.

Sorry for my Ingles, it's not my main language. The images were taken from the sources used or were created with artificial intelligence
