Scientists Say They Might Finally Decode Einstein’s Brain—Here’s the Tech That Could Do It

The method, known as Stereo-seq V2, may allow scientists to analyze preserved brain tissue at the cellular level, raising questions about whether genius can be decoded biologically. The technique, presented in the journal Cell, was developed by researchers at BGI-Research. It proposes a more efficient way to study historical samples, and may one day enable scientists to examine what made …

AI is helping to decode animals’ speech. Will it also let us talk with them?

Deep in the rainforests of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Mélissa Berthet found bonobos doing something thought to be uniquely human. How to detect consciousness in people, animals and maybe even AI During the six months that Berthet observed the primates, they combined calls in several ways to make complex phrases1. In one example, bonobos (Pan paniscus) that were …

This Incredible Brain Implant Can Decode Inner Thoughts Into Speech : ScienceAlert

Scientists are making significant strides forward in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, and a newly developed system can translate our thoughts into text or sound. It’s essentially an inner speech decoder, developed by researchers from institutions across the US. In tests on four volunteers with severe paralysis, the decoder hit an accuracy rate of up to 74 percent in translating thoughts …

New brain implant can decode a person’s ‘inner monologue’

Scientists have developed a brain-computer interface that can capture and decode a person’s inner monologue. The results could help people who are unable to speak communicate more easily with others. Unlike some previous systems, the new brain-computer interface does not require people to attempt to physically speak. Instead, they just have to think what they want to say. “This is …
