Джефф Безос и Билл Гейтс инвестируют в нейроинтерфейсную компанию Synchron

Компания невролога Тома Оксли Синхрон сегодня объявила о получении инвестиций в размере 75 миллионов долларов от группы инвесторов, среди которых Bezos Expeditions и Gates Frontier.

Синхрон разрабатывает новую, умеренно инвазивную технологию регистрации сигналов мозга с помощью эндоваскулярных групп электродов собственной конструкции -- стентродов, подводимые к месту регистрации через крупные вены. Стентроды используются в интерфейсе мозг-компьютер Синхрона, испытания которого на людях начались в Австралии уже более двух лет назад. В этом году были разрешены и уже начались клинические испытания в США. Тем самым Оксли серьезно опередил Илона Маска, компания которого Нейралинк (Neuralink) все еще не может даже приблизиться к получению разрешения FDA.

... That meal in Ojai, Calif, ended with something better than dessert: Bezos told Oxley that he wanted to invest in the business.

The cash brings Synchron’s total funding to US$145 million. That places it behind Elon Musk’s Neuralink and Max Hodak’s Science on fundraising, according to research firm Pitchbook, but far ahead of most other BCI companies.

Investors had a burst of enthusiasm for BCI startups in 2021, with some 49 deals attracting US$568 million of investment, according to Pitchbook.

The company maintains that it cannot act against individual or group chats, which are “private amongst their participants,” but it will respond to requests in relation to sticker sets, channels and bots which are publicly available. During the invasion of Ukraine, Pavel Durov has wrestled with this issue a lot more prominently than he has before. Channels like Donbass Insider and Bellum Acta, as reported by Foreign Policy, started pumping out pro-Russian propaganda as the invasion began. So much so that the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council issued a statement labeling which accounts are Russian-backed. Ukrainian officials, in potential violation of the Geneva Convention, have shared imagery of dead and captured Russian soldiers on the platform. Just days after Russia invaded Ukraine, Durov wrote that Telegram was "increasingly becoming a source of unverified information," and he worried about the app being used to "incite ethnic hatred." In 2018, Russia banned Telegram although it reversed the prohibition two years later. Overall, extreme levels of fear in the market seems to have morphed into something more resembling concern. For example, the Cboe Volatility Index fell from its 2022 peak of 36, which it hit Monday, to around 30 on Friday, a sign of easing tensions. Meanwhile, while the price of WTI crude oil slipped from Sunday’s multiyear high $130 of barrel to $109 a pop. Markets have been expecting heavy restrictions on Russian oil, some of which the U.S. has already imposed, and that would reduce the global supply and bring about even more burdensome inflation. "This time we received the coordinates of enemy vehicles marked 'V' in Kyiv region," it added.
