From face recognition to chatbots, AI is revolutionising technology at lightning speed.
It is also increasingly being used to read out information from the brain: with contemporary powerful AI, we can accurately reconstruct images seen and sentences heard from human fMRI activity, and create brain implants that allow paralysed patients to play chess and speak using their brain activity alone.
How does this technology work? Will this lead to a future in which anyone can read your mind, and we interact with our environments through brain interfaces, or do significant obstacles remain – or perhaps should remain?
In this session Dr. Groen will introduce and demystify the underlying technology, and discuss the opportunities and risks associated with integrating brain signals with AI.
