Brain Chip Helps Blind People See Elon Musk says his company Neuralink is aiming to restore partial sight to fully blind patients in 2026.

I will admit to being afraid of scales—the kind that weigh you, not the ones on a snake. And so my first reaction to the idea I’d be getting a free body-scanning scale with a Factor prepared meal kit subscription was something akin to “Oh no!”It’s always bad or shameful news, I figured, and maybe nothing I don’t already know.
