The researcher's intention seems good. But I recall a story called 'fire bird' by Osamu Tezuka. In the story, this kind of device was used for brain wash by a dictator. Anything you think, the dictator always FIX your idea using the inner voice. (it's an old story, that device used as a mask.) The main character in the story shout 'please stop talking from my inside', and try to cut his head off to stop the voice. Since the device is a punishment device against the dictator and he cannot remove the device. This technology is such a sharp double edge sword.

@@TN-ec6ig Actually I remember reading a paper about how trained model was able to reproduce what you are watching in realtime literally. So I am not saying above technology would be sufficient but its well known that your brain instantly develop picture of things you are in desire of. Eg child crying due to hunger might develop picture of bottle that satisfies his/her need everytime (correlation pattern).
The 'goal' is to read/edit/erase thoughts in the brain _almost as quickly as they appear_ ... just like how a UA-cam algorithm can auto-censor content/commentary that contains illegal language, imagery, etc. It reads, passively, for now. But it doesn't take long for engineers to convert sensors into controllers. The endgoal for this technology is literal thought-control. Even if weasley worms like this presenter don't think so, there are still plenty of powerful and unscrupulous parties who do (e.g., Chinese, US, Russian governments).
Beautiful technology but it raises some questions as well: In the future can a persons mind be hacked / can you upload a virus in to someones brain and make them stab someone or rob something ? What if you get electrical shock or a static discharge as many ppl have gotten in their lives ? if you get shocked how does your brain reacts ? How do you take a school test if your brain is hooked online 24 / 7 ? how can you prove you learn something if you can just google everything ? what happens if you run out of money and your internet plan ends ? does your ai brain just turn dark ? does it respond offline ? and many many more
The mind will be hacked only if a device is created that will control our thoughts, what we think and what we have to say. No a virus is a software and can't be embed in a living thing, yes it can infect that particular device to ruin our thoughts, but again that device has to be there. We normally gets minimal shocks everyday which are very harmless, so we have to create device like that which work on fraction of mili ampere to not affect us. Devices like this will be removable also to make it fair during exams. Googling for information is already going on its not new thing, you are already searching everything now. In future Internet will be so cheap and easily accessible that nothing will go offline. Everything will be on cloud and online.
I wonder if school policies would be put in place to stop students from wearing this technology during tests. Is it an invasion of privacy for teachers to check behind students' ears to see if they're wearing it? 🤔
This device can be modified for medical purposes to use on coma patients to help them communicate with doctors and family.

Still no news on Neuralink. I find the Neuralink concept a little more exciting to be honest. Not to take away from this piece of technology. It still sounds very useful!
This seems like a stepping stone to Neuralink to me. Like something like this could be commercialized within 5 years, and then Neuralink would come 5-15 years later.
@Martyr4JesusTheChrist Are you serious? It depends how the technology is made. Nobody is going to install a chip in their brain that lets the government read your thoughts. It will have to be an open source system. People will check this out before putting it in their fucking head man.

The interfacing is what's interesting here, the A.I. itself seems primitive. It's just speech-to-text recognition and then feeding it into an assistant software which has limited functionality like googling, weather, call someone etc.
Although it's a revolutionary step but still I think that AI has the capability of self enhancing itself and hence could lead to a devastating impact on humans in the long run because robots can dominate humans
AI is not some technocratic version of pandora's box. It has limitations, what this man proposed for example is limited by what you feed into it and what it can output into the physical world. Sure some new features feel like magic at first because the mechanics of it are hidden to the user. But this is the case with all radically new technologies. As long as you control what you feed into a system, and what the system can output to the physical world, there is no reason to fear it. Only yourself, and possibly other actors with administrator privileges to the system. Like the giant companies that collect your data today have administrator privileges over the systems that you use to run your life - today. If you want to fear anything, fear other people - and yourself.. *This does not say that i advice fear of others and yourself, because in general i don't (with a few exceptions of course :)

Babies can yet deliberately form words, so it probably wouldn't work with them, however, this technology could possibly pave the way for new tech that can read what some more intelligent animals (i.e., apes) are trying to say in a way that is comprehensible for humans
The stupidity of tedtalk audiences never ceases to amaze. Reading the comments to this talk....makes me think replacement by AI altogether is the way to go. Best wishes.
@uday kadam, babies and animals have undeveloped brains, therefore, this technology will not work on these “untrained” brains

Actually I remember reading a paper about how trained model was able to reproduce what you are watching in realtime literally.
So I am not saying above technology would be sufficient but its well known that your brain instantly develop picture of things you are in desire of.
Eg child crying due to hunger might develop picture of bottle that satisfies his/her need everytime (correlation pattern).
The 'goal' is to read/edit/erase thoughts in the brain _almost as quickly as they appear_ ... just like how a UA-cam algorithm can auto-censor content/commentary that contains illegal language, imagery, etc.
It reads, passively, for now. But it doesn't take long for engineers to convert sensors into controllers.
The endgoal for this technology is literal thought-control. Even if weasley worms like this presenter don't think so, there are still plenty of powerful and unscrupulous parties who do (e.g., Chinese, US, Russian governments).
Well put. Best wishes.
Beautiful technology but it raises some questions as well:
In the future can a persons mind be hacked / can you upload a virus in to someones brain and make them stab someone or rob something ?
What if you get electrical shock or a static discharge as many ppl have gotten in their lives ? if you get shocked how does your brain reacts ?
How do you take a school test if your brain is hooked online 24 / 7 ? how can you prove you learn something if you can just google everything ? what happens if you run out of money and your internet plan ends ? does your ai brain just turn dark ? does it respond offline ? and many many more
The mind will be hacked only if a device is created that will control our thoughts, what we think and what we have to say.
No a virus is a software and can't be embed in a living thing, yes it can infect that particular device to ruin our thoughts, but again that device has to be there.
We normally gets minimal shocks everyday which are very harmless, so we have to create device like that which work on fraction of mili ampere to not affect us.
Devices like this will be removable also to make it fair during exams.
Googling for information is already going on its not new thing, you are already searching everything now.
In future Internet will be so cheap and easily accessible that nothing will go offline. Everything will be on cloud and online.
I heard of a drug called Scopolamine
That does something like that rn
don't be fooled. Just DON'T do it 😆
I wonder if school policies would be put in place to stop students from wearing this technology during tests. Is it an invasion of privacy for teachers to check behind students' ears to see if they're wearing it? 🤔
I think Doug would suggest a reboot for you too!
This device can be modified for medical purposes to use on coma patients to help them communicate with doctors and family. This idea was something I thought about immediately after seeing this video on 22/07/2023. I live in South Africa Gauteng and my name is Bianke Du Plessis and I heard many medical stories about doctors saying people can hear and understand you while the patient is in comatose state.
"How AI could become an extension of your mind " posed on 6 June 2019 - forgive me but fucking Ray Kurzweil has been BANGING on about this for the last 20 years yet TED bring it to us today as if its something new.
Why do I hear the Terminator Theme playing in my head?
@Nicholas lol
I hear boss battle music
Still no news on Neuralink. I find the Neuralink concept a little more exciting to be honest. Not to take away from this piece of technology. It still sounds very useful!
This seems like a stepping stone to Neuralink to me. Like something like this could be commercialized within 5 years, and then Neuralink would come 5-15 years later.
I think there will be an announcement in next few months
Martyr4JesusTheChrist how so?
@Martyr4JesusTheChrist By what?
@Martyr4JesusTheChrist Are you serious? It depends how the technology is made. Nobody is going to install a chip in their brain that lets the government read your thoughts. It will have to be an open source system. People will check this out before putting it in their fucking head man.
This is scary amazing technology
Thank you 🙏🙏
I feel like no one is asking this. When could this be released as a product?
Imagine AR glasses like Vuzix, and this device. You would be able to Google at your meetings, and nobody would criticize you for not paying attention.
Fascinating, maybe a little scary? I can totally imagine a Black mirror episode based on this.
@Martyr4JesusTheChrist haha. You obviously have not been looking around at the recent developments in AI my friend.
it's awesome & defenetely the future of interfaces
If it's possible to make one for the voluntary nervous system, its also possible to make one for the involuntary brain activity!
Hmmn 🤔
You all need to watch Ghost In The Shell.
The show discussed all of this years ago.
Rewatching this in 2024 is exciting now that we have the Apple Vision Pro & LLM models, brain computer interface could be the missing puzzle that could render the need for keyboards obsolete.
This is some thing Gonna stuck The Whole AI World ..... Just Extreme version Bro...
Amazing way of thinking about it
This has been a long time coming - He didn't mention it, but surgically adding these into humans at a young age will be the goal I'm sure...
Absolutely fabulous
Is there a way to sign up for a trial? My daughter has Autism and has issues processing communication. I would love nothing more than to know what is going on in her mind to know how to better her life.
This is the footprints of mobile telepathology we are its feet

Another revolutionary inventor who may actually prevent ai hostility against humans
This is the reason for “gang stalking” try putting the muscle translator(audio beam generator) in there gut so they do not know it’s happening,play there internal monologue back to them over time then simply talk to them in the same voice to become there internal monologue
FBI / MOSAD / R&AW and other such ethical organisations would need this tech.
👍amazing, the future looks more amazing every day
This guy's popping right now on social media.
I don't know if that help to know what your baby saying , before he start talking
Omg this could be used to get Information you want to know. In a combination with the right words said you can make the attached person think of the answer and then you have it on the computer
You can’t read people’s thoughts but you can control them
Can anyone link me to Arnav Kapur's socials or any contacts for this device? It would be helpful since my father is an ALS patient.
When will it be available for people with ALS?
What about answering in Exams?
Why everyone in world excessively tags AI to such applications used in background, which clearly is an application of Machine Learnings. I feel the most important task was to discover and enhance the sensors.
Bro I do this without AI
I. Need. This. Now.
I can see this becoming something like a tattoo! A tattoo on the neck with conductive nano beads on the skin could potentially make this totally possible while damn near invisible. Or I guess you could make the tattoo look really cool as well.
Like in that series Dark Angel with Jessica Alba....gorgeous..... Stupid idea. Best wishes.
Amazing love from india
Making us better at being human, nice way to sell it 😎
😏👍
The woman at the end totally seemed to be trying to sabotage this idea... he clearly answered her questions in the beginning of the lecture
Not scared. I'd rather it read thoughts, rather than prevocal signals. Internal systems are essentially secure.
imaging someone illegally recording your thoughts
@@barepixels My thoughts, among billions of other humans' thoughts? Yeah, because mine are that special. Yours too!
Nah. Not worried, because if "they" wanted to track us and monitor us, they already have our phones, laptops, etc. ip addys, and can peruse our every social media post. Besides, that is not what this video was about. If someone illegally copied my mind and made a copy of me to use as a slave on another world, now then, we'd have issues.
Everyone is talking about how the artificial intelligence will control people & stuff... I see a completely different problem. If we will have this device, this computer in our head (yes, in the future it will probably lead to having computers in brains) then what will we live for? We will know everything just by asking the internet in our minds. Knowing everything. Life would loose its purpose
💯👍
i have so many thoughts in a single second so idk how that google search would work out.
but in your mind when you really think about a precise thing you only talk about one subject, and as the same speed as you talk
@@avannecer9358 right but imo the computer is too slow. im not going to slow down my thoughts so a computer can catch up. speed the computer up and we'll be talking.
Ariel Hunter Fan Page it will be just as fast in the future, just wait..
Ariel Hunter Fan Page , it's not at all reading your thoughts. Unless you talk so fast that nobody can understand you, it would work fine
@@shelbyg.8553 I understand that. I wrote my comment based on the title and description.
He reminds me of Pranav Mistry. Well, they build amazing things, but the prototypes never make it to market.
Hawking was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), commonly referred to in the U.S. as Lou Gehrig's disease
Can this device be helpful to people who can't speak like Stephen Hawkins
This could end up with other people being able to read our thoughts.
Kiran vk how could you think something like that! Everyone is nice and wants the best for you!
@@AM-fh7ek It just seemed like a possibility to me, maybe not in the near future but still,possible one day and that's a scary thought.
@@kiran258 reading your thoughts is not the only thing to be scared of....how about your thoughts no longer being your own? Best wishes. FreeJulianAssangeFreePalestineFreeUsAll.
Ye if Corporate gets to call the shots, most definitely
RedTuke _Guy How will it not? They are already colluding with goverments...
Amazing 🙋♂️
Excellent advance, fantastic
how can i learn this its so awesome i have so many ideas my head is gonna explode this is the future
Man ai is getting bigger
The interfacing is what's interesting here, the A.I. itself seems primitive. It's just speech-to-text recognition and then feeding it into an assistant software which has limited functionality like googling, weather, call someone etc.
Although it's a revolutionary step but still I think that AI has the capability of self enhancing itself and hence could lead to a devastating impact on humans in the long run because robots can dominate humans
Like that's a bad thing?
AI is not some technocratic version of pandora's box. It has limitations, what this man proposed for example is limited by what you feed into it and what it can output into the physical world. Sure some new features feel like magic at first because the mechanics of it are hidden to the user. But this is the case with all radically new technologies. As long as you control what you feed into a system, and what the system can output to the physical world, there is no reason to fear it. Only yourself, and possibly other actors with administrator privileges to the system. Like the giant companies that collect your data today have administrator privileges over the systems that you use to run your life - today. If you want to fear anything, fear other people - and yourself..
*This does not say that i advice fear of others and yourself, because in general i don't (with a few exceptions of course :)
Utkrisht Singh I really don’t understand when ppl say robots are gonna dominate cuz at the end of the day they are just lines of code. Oven which the coder has control right?!
A roomba can't kill you mate.
InCrIpTiOn yeah it is. Its totaly NOT worth it...
This would be awesome with an LLM
Congratulations !
Super technology amazing 😇😇😇
Where can buy AlterEgo ?
But when will we get a Brian interface?
That's would not be memorization, because it is not in your memory where you hold it, you are just looking it up the internet or have it recorded in the device. :/
😏👍
the return of ted :3
Where can i buy or get this device?
