Let me guess…
- not very accurate
- needs to be trained on an individuals brain.
Wonder how it interacts with neurodivergent people too :p

I was determined never to do meth again because I’m not sure I’d survive the psychotic paranoia again.
This news makes me 110% certain I’ll never do meth again.
Spent over 15yrs studying brain activity in EEG MRI and MEG. Seems like a far stretch, given our ability to accurately access signals. Brain is complicated, and signals like EEG are very poor reflector of specific signals. Like when you view city street lights at night. Pretty, but what can you decipher.
Ignoring the technology itself, I found it interesting that it has a lot less trouble with verbs compared to nouns (tho the article does not give much information about it).
Would it mean that humans keeps actions very separate (even if similar), while keeping things and concepts more clustered together? Is being precise on what is happening much more important than clearly specifying the subject and object of the action?
I’d wager that humans have much more neural hardware relating to verbs, since they relate to the things you yourself do over longer periods. Let’s say I clean my bathroom, or my kitchen, or something else - the actions I take are very similar, and my head has to keep my body doing the right thing for long stretches of time. It’s much harder to clean the wrong thing than to clean the thing wrong.
This is definitely progress, but we need to keep in mind that the particular language a person speaks can significantly influence how a person’s brain works.
AI like this will likely need to be trained from person to person.
Im sure this will onnnnllyyy ever be used for good and not evil. Surely.
Later on they find the accuracy is about as good as the whole facial recognition fiasco
So is it only useful for people who silently read? Because I don’t see any use case if so, it is not like we think using words, lol.
Many people do think using words through their inner monologue.
