A brain computer chip can read people's minds with up to 74% accuracy
Stanford scientists have developed an experimental implant that translates unspoken thoughts into text, with an accuracy of up to 74%.
The device works by recording neural signals in the motor cortex and using artificial intelligence to decode them, offering hope for easier communication for people who cannot speak.
