"The technology to decode our thoughts is drawing ever closer. Neuroscientists
at the University of Texas have for the first time decoded data from
non-invasive brain scans and used them to reconstruct language and meaning from
stories that people hear, see or even imagine.
In a new study published in
Nature Neuroscience, Alexander Huth and
colleagues successfully recovered the gist of language and sometimes exact
phrases from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) brain recordings of
three participants.
Technology that can create language from brain signals could be enormously
useful for people who cannot speak due to conditions such as motor neurone
disease. At the same time, it raises concerns for the future privacy of our
thoughts."
