Australian scientists have developed the world's first artificial intelligence program that reads minds and converts them into text
Australian scientists have developed the world's first mind-reading artificial intelligence program that converts brain waves into readable text. It works by using a sensor-covered helmet that studies specific electrical activity in the brain while the helmet wearer is thinking. Then artificial intelligence turns those thoughts into words, writes the Daily Mail.
The revolutionary technology was created by a team at the University of Technology Sydney who believe the technology could revolutionize the care of patients who have been deafened by a stroke or stroke.
Previous technology for translating brain signals into words either required surgery to implant electrodes in the brain, such as Elon Musk's Neuralink, or scanning with an MRI machine, which is quite expensive and difficult to implement in everyday life.
Meanwhile, this new technology uses a simple head-mounted helmet.
To test the technology, the team conducted experiments with 29 participants who were shown a sentence or phrase on a screen that they had to think about. The artificial intelligence model then displayed the text it had translated from the brain waves.
In one example, it was written: "Good afternoon. I hope you are well. I'll start with a cappuccino, extra espresso please.' Meanwhile, the text written by artificial intelligence was like this: "Afternoon. Are you OK: Cappuccino with extra espresso."
