Neuralink's DJ Seo: Inside the Race to Connect Brains and AI

DJ Seo, co-founder and president of Neuralink, joins Sequoia partner Shaun Maguire at AI Ascent 2026 to talk about what it takes to build the bridge between the human brain and AI. He walks through how Neuralink has gone from one human patient to over twenty, what it has been like to watch quadriplegic patients regain control of computers and robotic limbs through pure thought, and where Blindsight — the company's vision-restoration product — stands today. Also: why DJ believes AI will eventually become an exocortex layered above the human neocortex, why the real ceiling of this technology is "direct, uncompressed, multimodal transfer of concepts" between minds and machines, and what he has learned working alongside Elon Musk on a problem the world of atoms refuses to make easy. 00:00 Introduction 00:21 Telepathy Patient Stories 01:06 Convoy Robotics Independence 02:04 Blindsight Vision Restore 03:10 After Video Reflections 03:31 Origin Story And AI 06:31 Scaling And Vertical Integration 09:27 Caregivers And Purpose 13:10 BCIs Meet AI Future 21:05 Audience Q&A Wrap
