Robert Scoble met a quadriplegic — marketing lead at an Austin AI startup — who tried a new device from a secretive Austin company that listens to residual electrical signals still traveling from his brain to his hand, letting an AI decode them so he can operate a robotic hand again despite a surfing-accident spinal injury. Full reveal coming next week.
