Black Mirror fans claim device teased in Season 7 is based on the Neuralink brain chip - so, was Charlie Brooker inspired by Elon Musk?

However, it was a'mind-expanding' brain chip that really caught fans' attention. In the trailer, several characters can be seen sporting a small, white chip on the side of their faces. 'They call it mind expanding. It alters your neuronal structure,' Peter Capaldi's character ominously explains.
