The brain implant company cofounded by Elon Musk filed to trademark the product names Telepathy and Telekinesis. But it turns out that another person had already filed to trademark those names.
UK Patent Filed for Hair-Inclusive EEG Electrode by Synaptive | Synaptive posted on the topic | LinkedIn
Big news from us š We've just filed a United Kingdom patent application on our hair-inclusive EEG electrode, the first step in taking this from prototype to something that actually reaches the labs and people who need it. For too long, EEG hardware has quietly excluded people based on hair type. Thick, coily, tightly curled, if your hair didn't fit the mould, your signal quality suffered, or you were excluded from studies altogether. That's not a small technical footnote. That's data that shapes diagnoses, treatments, and our understanding of the brain itself, built on a foundation that didn't include everyone. We built Synaptive to fix that at the hardware level, so good signal doesn't depend on who you are or what your hair looks like. Filing the patent is a huge milestone for us, and we're only getting started. If you're a researcher, lab, or manufacturer interested in electrodes that actually work for everyone, reach out on our website (synaptiveltd.co.uk). Thank you to everyone who's backed us on this journey so far ā¤ļø Synaptive : ) Rishan P. Peter Bryan Michael-Merlin (Merlin) KrĆ½

Just back from a truly impactful few days at Asilomar for the Brain and Mind, hosted by the brilliant team at BrainMind. The spirit of the 1975 Recombinant DNA Conference felt palpable as we gathered to chart ethical standards for the accelerating field of Neurotech. While our focus was on neuroethics, from investor diligence questions and board-level risk matrices to user/stakeholder engagement and toolkits for neuroentrepreneurs, the key themes shared a powerful parallel with AI Ethics: maintain and enhance human agency, combat misuse and mistrust, and acknowledge that innovation is moving faster than its guardrails. Both fields present novel challenges that demand we adapt our existing frameworks and principles to meet new challenges. At the heart of it all is human agency. Whether we're discussing neurodevices or large language models, our core responsibility as builders, executives, investors, and policymakers is to ensure people are informed, in control, and never burdened to fight for their own empowerment or autonomy. We have the fundamental responsibility to care about the people we serve. This commitment to responsible, human-centric development is fundamental to our work at Inflection AI. We're building with emotional intelligence at the core. Every product decision we make starts with a simple question: does this expand what people can do, or does it quietly shift the burden onto them? AI should work for the humans using it, amplifying judgment, not replacing it. Earning trust through transparency rather than demanding it through dependency. A special thank you to Diana Saville for once again outdoing herself at every event and to Michael McCullough, MD for his endless support of the ecosystem. And to all the Braingels who showed up and rolled up their sleeves! Let's translate the urgency from Asilomar into action and continue to drive positive change.
