Neuralink wasn't a lost opportunity because it wasn't a possible opportunity in the first place. We are so far off from BCI input to the brain it's actually laughable. I'm willing to bet well over 60-80 years away
Output is also a joke but a far easier problem to solve.

I'm willing to bet well over 60-80 years away Progress depends on discoveries in surrounding fields having already been made, and on resources invested. To an extent, you can help spur surrounding fields with lots of $, but it seemingly isn't possible to force brilliant theoretical breakthroughs. We have direct input for audio (cochlear implants) that needs iterating on, what needs tons of investment is visual. Figuring out how do to research in a humane fashion, that'll be the tricky part, and it isn't something corporations have a good history of.
