AI Can Read Your Thoughts The Future Of BrainComputer Interfaces
News Source : Forbes
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.
