A recent Morgan Stanley report stated that the brain-computer interface (BCI) industry could reach $400B in the US. These AI-fueled chips allow users to control computers with their brain activity and are primarily meant to help people with paralysis and severe neurological disorders.

In the future, the CEO expects a portion of the roughly five million people in the US with less severe motor disabilities to use BCIs as well. Click here for the full conversation.
