“And so the work that I did was essentially machine learning classification so that we could interpret their brain activity at a much higher level of accuracy. And what that enabled us to do is reduce The response time from one to five minutes to anywhere between 30 seconds to a minute”

Brain-based wearables will replace and consolidate all other wearable devices
“One is that brain-based wearables are going to replace
All the other wearables that you have.
That's step one.
And so all that data and all that value that we're seeing with existing wearables are going to be all consolidated into one device.”
Consumers will reject invasive implants like Neuralink unless medically necessary
“The way I would think of Neuralink is kind of like a hip replacement. You know, no one really wants a hip replacement until, you know, you actually need one. And even if they end up being 10 times better than your actual hips in the future, You probably want t…”
Neurable will launch a silent, thought-controlled device interface by 2025

Brain data detects Parkinson's 10 years earlier than Apple Watches
“For example, you can actually pick up Parkinson's responses using the Apple Watch.
The issue is that by the time you pick it up at the hands or through walking metrics, your brain's already been dealing with it for the past 10 years.
And so with the brain, you…”
