In context: Quantum computing may still be in its infancy, but it's expected to bring a seismic shift in the industry with compute speeds that could be a million times faster than modern supercomputers. Given their unmatched power, quantum computers could give rise to massive cybersecurity risks that experts believe most enterprises are currently ill-equipped to deal with.

But, what if brains could be made better? What if they could be faster, able to solve more complex problems, and linked directly to the vast network of information we have available via the Internet? That's the lofty aim of the team at Neuralink. Elon Musk, who founded the firm in 2016, said the company's ultimate goal is to achieve a state of "symbiosis" with artificial intelligence. .
