AI can read our minds and reproduce images we THINK of, new breakthrough test reveals

Subjects of the test, the full findings of which were published in the eNeuro journal, were hooked up to electroencephalography (EEG) equipment by neuroscientists at the University of Toronto Scarborough. Adrian Nestor, one of the co-authors of the study, has before successfully reconstructed facial images from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data. Speaking of the results, Professor Nestor said: "What's really exciting is that we're not reconstructing squares and triangles but actual images of a person's face, and that involves a lot of fine-grained visual detail. "The fact we can reconstruct what someone experiences visually based on their brain activity opens up a lot of possibilities.
