The idea of “reading minds” has shifted from science fiction to a concrete engineering challenge, and the latest breakthroughs suggest the brain’s private code is finally yielding. Researchers are not ...

Most experimental brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) that have been used for synthesizing human speech have been implanted in the areas of the brain that translate the intention to speak into the muscle ...

A person can bite their tongue to avoid blurting out a secret, but a surgically implanted brain computer interface can reveal words that were never meant to be spoken. NPR's Jon Hamilton reports on a ...
