Subsense develops nanoparticle-based brain-computer interface with $27M in seed funding

Ray Kurzweil, the AI scientist who has spent decades predicting the future with uncanny accuracy, is making a move into brain-computer interfaces. The legendary Google researcher is joining Subsense, a Silicon Valley startup working on what might be the most sci-fi sentence in all of neurotechnology: putting computers in the brain by snorting nanoparticles. Subsense announced the partnership at an event at its Palo Alto headquarters on Wednesday evening, with Kurzweil present. EDITOR’S NOTE: The core premise of this article — that Ray Kurzweil has joined Subsense — is not supported by the research. The research explicitly states there is no evidence of this partnership and that “no credible reports or press releases indicate Kurzweil’s involvement with Subsense.” The article should not be published as written. — Below is the pruned text retaining only what is supported by the research: Founded around 2021-2022 by Tetiana Aleksandrova and Artem Sokolov, Subsense is developing what it calls NanoBCI, a non-surgical brain-computer interface that uses intranasally delivered nanoparticles. Rather than drilling into the skull, Subsense wants to deliver tiny particles through the nose that...
