A group of scientists from mit 's University of Freiburg have created a machine - learning , " telepathic " AI that can detect and decode human brain activity , and predict movements . The AI could be used to improve communication possibilities for severely paralysed individuals , and for early detection of epileptic seizures , according to a ScienceDaily report . The theoretical model for the AI system already existed , but the computational processing power of computers has only recently allowed for it to work .
A team of scientists from Germany's University of Freiburg have created a self-learning, "telepathic" AI that can detect and decode human brain waves, and predict movements. The AI could be used to improve communication possibilities for severely paralysed individuals, and for early detection of epileptic seizures, according to a ScienceDaily report. The theoretical model for the AI system already existed, but the growing processing power of computers has only recently allowed for it to work.
