Apparently scientists can implant a chip in mice brains to control their motivation and neural interactions do make them do specific tasks.

How soon can we expect the same thing for humans ?

For what purpose? You can control the motivation of people without implantants

You cann try manipulating and influencing but can't control them remotely and precisely with direct neural interference.

The infrastructure you would need would be expensive.

Oh for humans you mean.
Yeah we barely have the knowledge where to insert the rods that will make us want to behave in certain ways.
