Vivianne MorrisonHostIf you ever were thinking something and you didn't want someone else to hear it, now all that's off the table apparently.
So quite interestingly, the paper we're going to talk about today is about how to decode...
So patients with this neurodegenerative disease, their motor neurons degrade, they die.
And as the disease gets worse and worse, they really lose a lot of motor function.
So the idea is maybe we can implant electrodes in the brain that can help you speak again.
Because of course, you know, anyone who's looked at any videos online, half of them are now AI speech generated.
But the idea is if we can somehow decode what the person is trying to say with ALS.
And it just says something wrong? So they'll say the word isn't and the AI will go isn't.
It pronounced the T separately, right? Because that's the way it's written.
Why don't they check it? This is all about making as much money as possible with a little effort.
