On the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, December 3, 2025, Cai Lei, a former vice president of JD.com and a patient with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), revealed in an exclusive interview that if eye-control technology fails to meet his work requirements, he will attempt to use a brain-computer interface. Currently, he has collaborated with multiple institutions, including Huashan Hospital and Tangdu Hospital, to advance relevant clinical research, with many fellow patients actively participating. Cai Lei firmly believes that in the future, humans will be able to directly communicate with the world using their thoughts.
