Sam Altman's New Venture: Revolutionizing Brain-Computer Interfaces with Sound Waves

In an exciting development, Sam Altman has teamed up with biomolecular engineer Mikhail Shapiro to create Merge Labs, a groundbreaking brain-computer interface startup. Shapiro's expertise in non-invasive neural imaging and control techniques, particularly using ultrasound, sets Merge Labs apart from Neuralink's invasive approach.
During a recent talk, Shapiro discussed how sound waves and magnetic fields can create a less invasive brain-computer interface. He aims to modify cells to respond to ultrasound, eliminating the need for risky surgeries. Altman has also expressed his preference for a non-invasive method, stating he wouldn't want to 'sow something to his brain' that kills neurons.
Merge Labs is expected to raise significant funding, with OpenAI and others on board. The startup's first product may utilize gene therapy to make cells visible to ultrasound. Stay tuned for the official announcement of Merge Labs, where Altman is expected to be chairman, and discover the future of brain-computer interfaces.
