CALIFORNIA – *Scientists at the University of California have made amind-reading machine, which is believed to translate thoughts and displaythem in the form of texts.*
According to *Daily Mail, *the device is fully developed and claimed tohave 90% accuracy rate. It works by interpreting vowels and consonants usedto construct a sentence. These sentences, which are based on neural signalscan be simultaneously transformed into texts.
In the future, scientists believe that an easily-operated version of thiscreation could become a part of smartphones. Study leader David Moses told *TheSun* that this machine would be the first one of its kind, “No publishedwork has demonstrated real-time classification of sentences from neuralsignals.”
Moreover, scientists suggest that such advancement in technology could behelpful to people who struggle with speech or are unable to speak or move.In fact, it is thought that the machine can use words that it has neverheard before.
However, critics propose that problems can be caused by the machine ifsecret thoughts are exposed by chance. “I can imagine circumstances whereit may reveal some hugely embarrassing thoughts,” *The Sun*quotes celebritymind reader Uri Geller.
