Given that this paid Morgan Stanley report "Neuralink: AI in your brAIn" has Neuralink in the title, it seems rather likely that Neuralink (or its owner or other investors) paid for it.

For motor problems Neuralink seems basically fine and promising, and I believe they have now done about 12 implants of that type. I do not question the future for those kinds of applications of brain implants. www.reuters.com/business/hea...

For now, Elon Musk's Neuralink Blindsight brain implant for the blind is just vaporware: no evidence that it even exists, let alone that it will become available on the market, no peer-reviewed publications, no monkey videos, no clinical trials, nothing. #BCI #NeuroTech
