Musk announced the introduction of a Blindsight implant to improve vision in late 2025.

Neuralink will first implant a Blindsight implant in humans to improve vision at the end of 2025. The relevant information was confirmed on March 31 by American entrepreneur Elon Musk on the social network X (ex. Twitter).

"Elon Musk's company Neuralink intends to implant a new implant, Blindsight, in humans for the first time at the end of 2025. The device is designed to restore sight to completely blind people," says the publication, which was reposted by the billionaire.

The recording says that Musk said this during a conference that took place in Wisconsin. According to the published information, the device will initially have a low resolution, but in the future it is planned that thanks to the implant, its wearer will have "superhuman vision."
