that um my brain was like anticipating what i wanted to do and that all started sort of um i don't know like percolating in my brain like it just it was just sort of there like always in the back like that's so weird that it could do that it kind of makes sense but i wonder what that means um as far as like using the neural link and um
And then as I was playing around with the attempted movement and playing around with the cursor, and I saw that as the cursor control got better, that it was anticipating my movements and what I wanted it to do, like cursor movements, what I wanted to do a bit better and a bit better. And then one day I...

just randomly as I was playing WebGrid, I looked at a target before I had started attempting to move. I was just trying to get over, train my eyes to start looking ahead, like, okay, This is the target I'm on. But if I look over here to this target, I know I can maybe be a bit quicker getting there. And I looked over and the cursor just shot over. It was wild. I had to take a step back.

I was like, this should not be happening. All day, I was just smiling. I was so giddy. I was like, guys, do you know that this works? I can just think it and it happens. Which, like, they'd all been saying this entire time, like, I can't believe, like, you're doing all this with your mind. I'm like, yeah, but is it really with my mind?

Like, I'm attempting to move, and it's just picking that up, so it doesn't feel like it's with my mind. But when I moved it for the first time like that, it was... Oh, man. It, like, it... made me think that this technology, that what I'm doing is actually way, way more impressive than I ever thought.

It was way cooler than I ever thought and it just opened up a whole new world of possibilities of like what could possibly happen with this technology and what I might be able to be capable of with it.

That's what it felt like. I didn't feel like... I felt like I had discovered something, but for me, maybe not necessarily for the world at large or this field at large. It just felt like an aha moment for me. Like, oh, this works. Obviously it works. And so that's what I do all the time now. I kind of intermix the attempted movement and imagined movement.

I do it all together because I've found that there is some interplay with it that maximizes efficiency with the cursor. So it's not all one or the other. It's not all just, I only use attempted or I only use imagined movements. It's more I use them in parallel and I can do one or the other. I can just completely think about whatever I'm doing. But I don't know. I like to play around with it.
