In this brief exchange, a Neuralink patient expresses excitement about moving from gaze‑based control to direct brain‑computer interfacing for video games. The conversation highlights the anticipated practical benefit—being able to play games more naturally—and the emotional payoff of spending additional quality time gaming with their father. The speakers convey optimism that the technology will be a game‑changing improvement for the patient’s family life.

I hope this is a game changer for you and your family. I am so excited to get this in my head and stop using my gaze.
Sounds good. This could really be a really big difference. I don't know if you guys play video games with your dad and otherwise have some good times, you know?
Yep, they are excited for that potential to spend more time playing video games with dad. So thank you so much.
You're most welcome.
