AI Can Directly Decode Words From Brain Waves

Thanks to Artificial Intelligence (AI), computers are getting smarter in this technological era. It automates the mundane manual labor of a worker. However, unlike the other non-AI machines they think like a human. It can learn from its mistakes and correct it, thus getting smarter in executing a particular task. Youtube and Facebook used AI in their algorithm of displaying what the users want to view thereby encouraging them to waste their time more in scrolling through their feeds or watch more cat videos.
Now, with AI it could translate the activated neural patterns into a comprehensible word that make telepathy closer to reality. Listening to people speaking or imagine someone speaking to us perhaps our imaginary friend, our neurons in our brain's auditory cortex get excited. So, neuroscientists would be able to decode the words formed inside a person's brain. In their study, they placed electrodes directly on a patient's head then instructed him to read the words aloud and listen to certain words. The machine picked up the patient's neural pattern emitted then fed to an AI network and learn how the pattern works by itself. So in their test, when that person merely thought about those words, that computer successfully interpreted the person's thought. It could analyze well what pattern was used basing from the data given and reconstruct it into at least somewhat-intelligible sound files. Below is a link that shows a sample result of their amazing work:  https://regmedia.co.uk/2019/01/30/ai_vocoder.mp3

This awesome technological tool aims to help people with speech problems to express their thoughts well through the computer-to-brain interface without uttering any sound or moving their hand to show a sign or write. And also, this could help boys in a relationship with a girl to decide what their girl is trying to imply or truly wants, thus reducing the possible conflicts. ;)
