Third patient got a Neuralink brain implant. The work is part of a booming field-Elon Musk

Elon Musk addressed a campaign town hall in support of Republican presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump in Folsom, Pennsylvania, on Thursday, October 17, 2024. During a live-streamed interview at a Las Vegas event on his social media platform X, Musk announced that a third individual has received an implant from his brain-computer interface company, Neuralink, which is among several organizations working to link the nervous system with machines. Musk stated, “We’ve got three humans with Neuralinks, and all are functioning well.” He noted that since the first brain implant was performed about a year ago, the company has improved the devices by increasing the number of electrodes, enhancing bandwidth, and extending battery life. He also mentioned that Neuralink aims to implant experimental devices in an additional 20 to 30 individuals this year.

Women switched at birth in 1965 sue Norway for a breach of human rights

 In 1965, a woman gave birth to a baby girl in a private hospital. 


When the baby developed dark curls that made her look different from herself, Karen Rafteseth Dokken assumed she just took after her husband’s mother.


It took nearly 60years to discover the true reason: the woman's biological daughter had been mistakenly switched at birth in the maternity ward of the hospital in central Norway.


The girl she ended up raising, Mona, was not the baby she gave birth to.


The babies — one was born on Feb. 14 and the other on Feb. 15, 1965 — are now 59-year-old women who together with Rafteseth Dokken are suing the state and the municipality.


In their case, which opened in the Oslo District Court on Monday, they argue that their human rights were violated when authorities discovered the mistake when the girls were teenagers and covered it up. They claim Norwegian authorities had undermined their right to a family life, a principle enshrined in the European human rights convention, and demand an apology and compensation.


Rafteseth Dokken, now 78, was in tears as she described learning so many years later that she got the wrong baby, according to Norwegian broadcaster NRK.
