Participants in the first human trials of the Neuralink brain chip have revealed that they have been using the technology to play video games for up to 12 hours per day.

Neuralink shared details from the first 100 days of its Prime Study, which saw paralysed people surgically fitted with a brain-machine interface in order to give them control of a computer using just their thoughts.
