Clickbait-ish title, the prothesis is not “mind controlled” but uses wireless electrodes that record muscle contraction. Cool tech, though.

Technically, her mind controls the muscles that control the hand. But yes, her mind doesn’t control the hand directly.
It is pretty cool to see the hand work away from the limb.
