By looking at a person's head, can you understand the thoughts running within? For example, what do you think this person thinks? He's definitely in pain.
We can see it from his sweaty body, the lines on his face, the look in his eyes. But can we read the more complex thoughts running through his mind? What if put our fingers on his forehead like this and take a journey through the curves of his brain. Well, come on, this is a scenario that can only take place in science fiction movies. "Brain reading" can not actually be possible. It can not, right? Let's not call it "brain reading", but it has been proven in the laboratory that "semantic reconstruction of continuous language from non-invasive brain recordings" is possible. No, this is not a sci-fi scenario you see. An article published in "Nature", one of the most prestigious publications in the scientific world. Moreover, it was published just the other day, on first of May, 2023, and since it is a very important step in the field of neuroscience, I wanted to share it with you freshly. Yes, now what goes in people's minds can be turned into text. These three researchers at the University of Texas, Alex, Shailee and Jerry, trained an artificial intelligence with hundreds of hours of data collected from volunteer participants. They called this tool, which they developed as a language model like OpenAI GPT-4 or Google Bard, "semantic decoder". Alex says: “With this model we've developed, we can take complex ideas over long periods of time by deciphering language.” How come? Like this; They make the volunteer listen to a podcast. The presenter in the podcast says a lot of things, and the volunteer listens to a lot of things. What happens when you listen? There is some activity going on in your brain. What activities are these? Let me show you directly the example these researchers did. In the left bubble we see what was said to the volunteer's ear. In Turkish: "We start to trade stories about our lives we’re both from up north." Some regions in the brain of the person who hears this sentence are immediately activated, and this activation is deciphered by the newly developed artificial intelligence technology, “semantic decoder” word for word: “we started talking about our experiences in the area he was born in i was from the north.” Those who speak English will quickly realize that this sentence isn't all that perfect in terms of grammar.
However, we can somewhat translate it like this: “We started talking about our experiences in his birthplace, I was from the north.” It's not perfect, but I think we can roughly understand what it is thinking, right? Look, this is an extremely important leap. Yes, We watched the experiments done with pigs and monkeys whose brains were chipped with Neuralink in the past years in live broadcasts and videos together and we were surprised. In this method, called "brain-computer interface", there have been other important developments in the past months.
