This 'Mind-Reading' AI Is a Wiz at Figuring Out What You See - CNET
Israeli scientists have devised an AI model that can reconstruct and even predict what people are seeing with startling accuracy, likening the results to mind reading.
Their work still exists largely in lab settings, though the researchers are hopeful that advances down the line could be extended even as far as reading people’s dreams. More immediately, the technology could have potential for medical purposes, like helping people communicate who otherwise can’t due to injury or disability.
The AI model, called Brain-IT, was developed by professor Michal Irani and fellow researchers at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel. They’ve documented their work onGitHub and in a paper presented at a scientific conference earlier this year.
