Opinion
Bosworth: Invasive brain implants are a consumer non-starter due to myelination
“There's a couple of challenges, one of which is that the brain myelinates the things that are put there, so they become electrically inert over time. So they have to be removed and replaced. And if you leave them in long enough, they can prove fatal or at leas…”

Prediction Partly held up
Kantrowitz predicts dozens of Neuralink patients will receive implants in 2025
“I think 20, 25 is going to be the year of the brain computer interface. I think we could end up seeing dozens of Neuralink patients in 20, 25.”

Prediction Not checkable as stated
Rapoport: BCIs will augment human memory in the near future
“I definitely foresee a future in which we can You know, a near future in which we can augment you know, memories through that kind of fluid interaction.”

Sep 5, 2025 positive
Assertion Supported
Rapoport: Predicting decisions a fraction of a second ahead is already possible
“Predicting decisions before they happen, at least at the fraction of a second level is already possible. And we have already some understanding of the areas of the brain that are responsible for that.”

Disclosure
Rapoport: Precision is developing BCIs to detect consciousness and restore communication
“We feel, and we're working on this that brain computer interface technology can provide a tool for distinguishing those patients from true coma, and yes, providing a way for them to communicate.”

Prediction Not checkable as stated
Rapoport: Stroke is the next market expansion for BCIs
“And in practical terms you know, we think that probably stroke represents the next expansion of the market for brain computer interfaces.”

Humanity could meaningfully merge consciousness with machines by 2035, Hodak predicts
“Probably not next year, but I think within the next decade. Wow. It's very possible that this stuff is going to get figured out in a meaningful way. I think like, 2035 will be a very, very different world than 2025.”
