AI Reads Minds: Converts Brainwaves to Text
Researchers have created an AI that can read your thoughts.
Using EEG, a device that reads brain activity, the AI translates these brain signals into words.
This technology is still new and knows only a few words, but is improving.
It's a non-invasive method, meaning it doesn't require surgery.
The scientists hope this AI will help people who have trouble speaking or moving to communicate better.
Other scientists are using AI to predict future brain problems.
Scientists developed an AI system translating brainwaves into text.
The AI uses EEG to read brain activity non-invasively.
The model was trained on a limited vocabulary.
The technology could aid communication for those with speech or movement difficulties.
Other research uses AI to predict brain health issues using EEG.
