    “INBRAIN’s BCI technology was able to differentiate between healthy and cancerous brain tissue with micrometer-scale precision.”

    This breakthrough with the surgery is very interesting, but what is even more interesting to me is their wider goals. They wonder if it will be possible to use this approach to treat many brain disorders, including mental health conditions.

    This also has the potential for a direct connection between artificial intelligence and our brains. That has long been speculated about in sci-fi. This approach has a chance of starting to make it a reality.

    There has to be potential for discovery by using AI with microscopic surgical tools to systematically dissect a diseased cadaver.

    I’m sure there will be pushback to teaching and enabling AI to dice up humans though.
