Scientists at the University of Technology in Sydney, Australia, have developed a portable, non-invasive artificial intelligence "mind-reading" headset called BrainGPT that can convert thoughts into text.It is understood that BrainGPT divides brain wave signals into different units to capture specific characteristics and patterns.The model gained the ability to convert EEG signals into words and sentences by learning from large amounts of EEG data.
In addition to helping people who are unable to speak due to illness or injury (stroke, paralysis, etc.) communicate, BrainGPT can also enable seamless communication between humans and machines, such as the operation of bionic arms or robots.
Compared with brain-implanted electrodes,The EEG signal received through this external device will be noisier, but the accuracy of the translation results is also very good, reaching 40%.
Researchers say that this system is expected to achieve an accuracy of close to 90% in the future, which will be comparable to traditional language translation or speech recognition programs.
