== Ethical considerations==
BCIs present ethical questions, including concerns about privacy, autonomy, consent, and the consequences of merging human cognition with external devices. Exploring these ethical considerations highlights the complex interplay between advancing technology and preserving fundamental human rights and values. The concerns can be broadly categorized into user-centric issues and legal and social issues.
 
Concerns center on the safety and long-term effects on users. These include obtaining [[informed consent]] from individuals with communication difficulties, the impact on patients' and families' quality of life, health-related side effects, misuse of therapeutic applications, safety risks, and the non-reversible nature of some BCI-induced changes. Additionally, questions arise about access to maintenance, repair, and spare parts, particularly in the event of a company's bankruptcy.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Paralyzed Again |url=https://www.technologyreview.com/2015/04/09/168424/paralyzed-again/ |access-date=2023-12-08 |website=MIT Technology Review |language=en}}</ref>
