Yeah, it's not actually in their blog, at least not anymore. The patient explains what happened in the podcast interview I posted. The wires have electrodes on them that were lined up with neurons, his brain shifted more than expected, and so the electrodes became in contact with new neurons. They changed the code, and now the device is more accurate than it was originally. There are no free-floating wires detached inside the patients brain.
