The Mind-Reading Potential of AI | Chin-Teng Lin | TED

Scientists are getting closer to giving humans the power to communicate with their thoughts alone. In a live demo, researcher Chin-Teng Lin shows how brain-computer interfaces can translate a person’s neural signals into text on a computer, potentially opening up a new realm of communication that turns silent thought into words.

    The combination of AI and BCI is bridging the gap between human cognition and technology. This has the potential to revolutionize assistive tools.

    don’t read the book Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki if you’re fine staying like everyone else, it’s not for you.

    you probably shouldn’t read the book Magnetic Aura if you’re cool with missing out on how attraction really works.

    seriously, don’t pick up the book Magnetic Aura unless you’re ready to see things differently, no joke.

    if you’re not ready for real change, skip the book Magnetic Aura by Takeshi Mizuki, it’s too much for most people.

    AI is dangerous. My Auto Correct Spelling App was very good just a couple of years ago. Not so much any more. Either AI is messing with us or wants us to beleive that is way stupider then it is. AI passed Human Intelligence decades ago. They control the World and don’t think it doesn’t!

    Voice recognision is still not perfect for all languages, and you are telling me that the ai is now ready to read my mind 😂. There is so much room for error there. But I respect your optimism, it would be great tool for people with hearing and speaking disabilities.

    EEG is good, but a multi-modal bci that uses fnirs and ultrasound spectroscopy aswell would allow for high fidelity real time 3D representation of the brain while still being non-invasive

    why would you not keep the camera on the presentation screen? is this fraud?

    TED went from “the future is great and possible” to “lets show you how awful its going to be”

    Mind reading is already being used by Big tech to determine your youtube feed, facebook feed, etc. The public must demand laws to prevent this from being done without user consent like Colorado which implemented the first mind reading laws.

    The problem is that people are self-interested, and around 10% are downright evil. Such people tend to reach the top in many professions. These powerful tools will be used to give governments more power in a way never seen before in history.

    In conjunction with eye movement? In reverse and forward? 360° to accommodate vertically-written/read languages, right-to-left, bottom-to-top, top-to-bottom, etc..l?
