Fastest to beat Pager
Time from first serve to your third point. Monkey or human? The board decides.
Best of the lab
Quotes pulled from the neural feed during matches. Pager talks a lot for a monkey.
Neural spike detected. It was hunger.
Long rally. 14 hits. I want that smoothie.
Point to the human. Recalibrating ego.
Match point. Can we talk about the bananas first.
I lost on purpose. For science.
I did not touch anything. It was telepathy.
I am a banana. Why am I the paddle.

The monkey who started it
- PAGERA 9-year-old macaque
Neuralink placed one device on each side of his brain, about six weeks before filming.
- JOYSTICKHe learned with his hands first
Pager played with a joystick while the implant recorded his neurons. A decoder learned which signals meant up and which meant down.
- UNPLUGGEDThen the joystick came out
With the joystick disconnected, Pager kept playing using only his brain activity. The team called it MindPong.
- SMOOTHIEPaid in banana smoothie
Every good rally earned a sip of banana smoothie through a straw.
- APR 2021The video drops
Neuralink released the MindPong video in April 2021, and the internet watched a monkey play Pong with his mind.
- NOW$PONG
You play the same game with your hand, which is less impressive. Holders earn NEURALINK anyway.
