Neuralink’s continued work on brain chips is nothing short of one of the biggest technological innovations at the moment. As Neuralink continues to advance, it has had remarkable impacts on one paralyzed woman.
The Daily Mail reported that Audrey Crews, who has been completely paralyzed for 20 years, now has the ability to write her name on a computer screen due to her Neuralink chip.
On X Crews posted, “I tried writing my name for the first time in 20 years. I’m working on it. Lol.”

Crews was injured in a car accident when she was only 16, which left her paralyzed. Now she is gaining back at least some semblance of normalcy.

The breakthroughs emerging from Neuralink’s brain chip technology offer both astonishing hope and cause for deep reflection. The ability for someone like Audrey Crews to regain even limited functions after two decades of paralysis is nothing short of miraculous in the eyes of many.
However, these developments also raise important ethical and spiritual questions. As believers, we must be cautious not to idolize technology or overstep boundaries that God has placed for human flourishing. The merging of human cognition with machines—especially through direct brain-computer interfaces—could open doors to manipulation, loss of personal autonomy, or attempts to “enhance” humanity beyond its God-given design. While the technology can serve those who are suffering, it must not become a substitute for dependence on God.

It must be tied to a person’s eye movements, I’m speculating. If not, then humanity is in for a reckoning.
