"Advancements in AI allow for mind-reading technology"

Scientists from the University of Texas at Austin have developed a non-invasive brain-computer interface (BCI) that can decode continuous language from the brain using fMRI scans and large AI language models. The decoder gets the general meaning right, even though it doesn’t nail every single word. This breakthrough raises serious ethical questions about privacy and the potential misuse of the technology. Our brains are the final privacy frontier, and neuroethicists argue that we need revamped human rights laws to protect us before these technologies are rolled out.
