Neuralink's brain chip malfunctioned, company knew of risk

Neuralink's brain-chip implant malfunctioned in its first human patient as wires retracted from the brain, impacting its effectiveness. The issue was later fixed. Reuters reported the company was aware of this risk years before. Noland Arbaugh received the implant in January, experiencing the malfunction weeks later. Neuralink had tested on animals and deemed the risk low.
