FEATURED STORY 🔥
Neuralink’s First Human Brain Chip Implanted
Elon Musk's company, Neuralink, has made a big step forward by putting a special device, called 'Telepathy,' into a person's brain for the first time.
This device is designed to let people control computers or phones just by thinking. It's especially aimed at helping those who can't move their arms or legs. This is a huge move in the world of science and technology, and it's part of Neuralink's big dream to connect our brains directly with computers.
But this breakthrough has also raised some concerns. People are questioning how Neuralink does its experiments, especially because some animals were harmed during the testing. Despite these issues, the successful implant in a human is a major moment. It shows that we might be getting closer to a future where our thoughts can control the technology around us.

It seems you loved last week’s business idea - so we thought let’s do another one. Creating and selling AI-generated patterns on Etsy.
These guys have made upward of £12k. And these guys upward of £5k. Both with a single product.
Example Pattern Selling on Etsy
The steps are pretty straightforward:
1. Create a unique image on MidJourney.
2. Use Reeper App to transform it into a pattern.
3. Compile the patterns into groups and sell them as a bundle.
