A monkey plays games with only its thought, thanks to an implant The American neurotechnology company Neuralink founded by Elon Musk in 2016, released a video showing Pager, a 9 year old macaque, to play a video game using only his mind, thanks to a brain implant. The monkey was initially trained to move a cursor over a square with a controller.. If it was successful, enjoyed a banana smoothie through a straw. Meanwhile, scientists recorded the activity of his brain through an implant. The controller disconnects and the cursor responds directly to signals from the animal's brain. This technology aims to create a control system for electronic devices and artificial limbs, especially in people with disabilities.

Then the bacteria integrated the fragment in his DNA. This process is known as "horizontal gene transfer".
