> I also definitely got a chuckle that you thought this part was impossible, not the brain interface.

That's because brain interfaces in the same general category already exist. Much less sophisticated, of course, but as the saying goes, that's just an implementation detail. :-)

I'm dying to know what you think is close.

Most of the big successes have been involved "reading" brain signals and using them to control things like the modular prosthetic limb or speech synthesis.

In contrast, it seems like most of the "write" stuff has been comparatively crude (e.g., phosphenes in visual areas), though the somatosensory stuff (also for the modular limb) is pretty neat. Have I missed something?
