The prospect of using computers to produce speech from brain activity is amazing and unbelievable! Anticipating how this breakthrough will progress the field of human-computer interaction.
This is definitely a good technology for the disabled. What I don't like is that it will get in the hands of the wrong people especially for things like obtaining personally identifiable information. The hurdle to that, thankfully, is the fact that this requires electrodes and other hardware. There will come a time when this could be done without the hardware. And that will be a scary time.
Here we go. This is fantastic. Even if this turns out to be an individualized therapy from the variation amongst the population, it'll only get better as AI systems become faster and more sophisticated. Can you imagine what a relief something like this would be for someone suffering from the communication barrier following a stroke?
This is great but one practical problem I can think of is, how does the brain-computer interface tell the difference between what people want to communicate and what people want to keep in their head?
@@grimtin10 I heard somewhere that it works through detecting subvocalizations people produce when intending to speak. The problem is there are times when I emotionally feel like speaking but logically know that I shouldn't and exercise self-control and don't. I may even move my mouth either while closed or open (trying to keep it out of sight so nobody can read my lips). Would that risk falsely cuing the machine to think that I was choosing to vocalize those things?
So what if people have intrusive thoughts from years of different types of abuse and PTSD ? Unwanted thoughts we dont want in our brain to begin with can be seen on screen an read and possibly read by others doen the road? Or will there be help for mental health patience?
Depends on context. Half the rate, 25% error. Not yet universal not portable (each brain may need to be analyzed as thoroughly). Limited vocabulary. Comparing it might be safe to say we're no closer to this being useful than we are with flying cars.
You still need to make sounds/vocalize your thoughts for it to work. But yeah, not looking forward to the more advanced versions which will be sure to come in the future.l
It is the intersection of neuroscience, computer science, and electrical engineering. If you follow the link to the article, then click on authors names, you can find out what they have degrees in.
Surely helping people with disabilities is the reason for which this technology has been developed. It’s the culmination of the all other numerous and very successful efforts to support people with disabilities. You will so burn 🔥
its promising and has its own market. there are however things i dont like about it specifically the implant facet and the degrees of separation between brain activity- oh directly into sounds? hmmmmmmmmmmm
There's a bit of talk about dystopian pod-life where you don't need to do anything and your pod keeps you alive, and you live in VR. The best example of this is The Matrix, of course. But for people suffer from completely debilitating afflictions as well as a complete lack of social life, these kinds of technologies would allow them to live through an avatar either in real life or in VR. Haptic technology is also well underway and I can imagine smell and taste also moving in that direction. If you can translate sensory information to something a machine can understand and process accurately, you can probably do something in reverse as well. To make The Matrix even more dystopian however: imagine life in The Matrix sponsored by big advertising companies. "Do you want to experience 3 ads for some free mayo with your fries?" and of course ads will also be fully immersive experiences at that point. Imagine an ad for cocaine giving you just enough to get you addicted.
I think in some way we are getting close in a way. You never have to leave you home anymore at all. You can work, have food delivered, get your degree, have booze delivered, meet women online, start bank accounts online, at the moment you can live a 100% isolated life. Which is definitely contributing to the increase in mental health decline in 1st world countries.
Ok but you still need money to make it profitable for companies. Where is the money coming from if your just sitting on your ass at home all day being unproductive? And what's the point of making someone watch an ad when they don't have the money to buy your product anyways?
What does that even mean. How could finally being able to communicate with other humans NOT affect the spirit within? Or are you saying that the words are just generated from the flesh and not from the spirit? I want to understand.
@@johnwolfenden7599 of course it can help people with physical disabilities, but operating in the spirit is something separate from that. Basically it means God's will over your fleshly will....
and we all know were this will end's -first its freedom for the patients then its about freedom for the end user -like politicians, banks ,business, dictators ,borders ,police etc -these are the willing subjects then it will tested on everyone else including animals to figure out IQ + yes children t figure out where they bellong on the scale for edjucation or threatment -and shuold i guess -pply for this for by do this.... and I would guess it wont apply to rich and powerful because they "can"
'Will' is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. I am sure the systems produced by other teams _will_ do amazing things too. The difference is more in the nature of the presentation. These are academic research teams and Musk is a salesman.

Or any other disability inhibiting speech

I think she has a “send” button.
as you can hear in the video she is actually physically vocalizing during all of these

@@badAtPickingUsernames1988 maybe
im sure there is further ways for it to learn to not do that but we'll only know when more people try this
It doesn’t but you can just add an off switch for those able enough to operate a button.
So helpful for those people. Grateful for this amazing time in science.
It’s wireless as well. They do it wireless by using MRI scans and convert the scans into brain activity and convert it to speech.
So what if people have intrusive thoughts from years of different types of abuse and PTSD ? Unwanted thoughts we dont want in our brain to begin with can be seen on screen an read and possibly read by others doen the road? Or will there be help for mental health patience?
Can't hear my thoughts isn't a statement anymore.

Yeah.. this is just wanderful
Now they can read your thoughts!!!
In 1984
Oups I mean in 2084
And now they can do it without bulky sensors. They just need to inject you with NeuroSwarm 3
You still need to make sounds/vocalize your thoughts for it to work. But yeah, not looking forward to the more advanced versions which will be sure to come in the future.l

Can anyone tell me more about the curriculum these people have to make it that far and do this kind of applications ? thanks !

Go to MIT or CIT.

What an exciting time we live in! ❤
yes! true!
Hello, I need to buy a mind reading computer where to find it?
this is absoultely fantastic
How you make videos and do research for videos ? Please share with us
I think it is awesome that people with speech problems can communicate easier. Does this now become the social environment
Of the borg
How do you turn it off when you have one and don’t want it
what is the name of this technology
its promising and has its own market. there are however things i dont like about it specifically the implant facet and the degrees of separation between brain activity- oh directly into sounds? hmmmmmmmmmmm
Thanks

Aren't these prayer computers Maxwell chaney
Reading minds & controlling them.
Yep!!
No where near close to that level. Also what would be the point of controlling a disabled person
@@vejet watch the movie "gamer",or any other brain chip movie,all preprogramming, Elon Musk said:"we put a chip in your brain to control your mind"
I think i seen something like this in demolition man with Sylvester Stallone and Sandra bullock 😮
Incredible!
Great! Tho mine brain activity would be turned into spinach instead.
Body-reading computer?
this is so fucking scary. imagine governments having access to this in 20 years time, being able to read the thoughts of all their citizens.
I will not let the government drill my skull for a brain implant!
Haha, 20 years, I think it's going to be much earlier than that.
There are subtle clues that give away such an attempt.
For example said government drilling into your skull to implant a chip.
WooOOOOOoooOO They're cOmInG fOr YoUr ThOuGhTs!!!!1! Boogidieboogidieboogidie

Mind-reading, mind boggling! Without having any hint of system on work, they're creating a magic box. Amazing!

That's exciting!
Well…How can dementia be cured?
I am telling the truth. I don't have much longer, please if you can, please help me.
Hope no one gets to hack it and read my conversations
As a Christian who operates in the spirit and very little In the Flesh I do not believe this technology will have any effect on the spirit within us.
What does that even mean. How could finally being able to communicate with other humans NOT affect the spirit within? Or are you saying that the words are just generated from the flesh and not from the spirit? I want to understand.

Это не добровольные, а люди больные. Какое высокомерие над ними
Unfortunately these researchers are 5400 years late to the game.
Brain computer interfaces, and no mention of Neuralink? Neuralink will do this application and much more.

The difference is more in the nature of the presentation. These are academic research teams and Musk is a salesman.
