News Summary

  • A brain-computer interface (BCI) successfully decoded inner speech with roughly 74% accuracy.
  • The system tapped directly into the motor cortex, where inner speech lives as a scaled-down mirror of spoken words.
  • The most startling revelation is that a thought keyword could activate the computer.
  • Stop thinking it, and the system falls silent.
  • If a system can decode counting, what happens when the signal is applied to other structured inner speech?
  • Silent rehearsals.
  • Mental lists.
  • The lyrics you hum in your head.
  • These are not random neuron firings.
  • They are patterns.
  • And AI, if given access, is very good at recognizing patterns.
