Neuralink says an ALS patient reached 75 words a minute with its speech implant
Neuralink said on 28 October 2026 that one participant with ALS in its VOICE speech trial reached 75 words per minute with a 5.8 per cent word error rate on a 125,000-word vocabulary in their first week. The figures come from a company post and have not been peer-reviewed. They are faster than any published result on a vocabulary that size, and less accurate than the best published results from UC Davis.
