AI now is very smart. It can write an article, create a piece of art, etc. And, it can even read your mind and translate it into text. A new AI tool was developed by a team of scientists in America.
The tool has two main parts, a scanner (扫描仪) and an AI system (系统) called GPT-1. The scanner can record people's brain activity. And GPT-1 works just like Chat GPT and other similar AI systems.
Three volunteers took part in the team's study. Each person spent sixteen hours listening to stories. The people imagined the stories as they heard them. And the scanner recorded their brain activity.
These recordings and the text of the stories were fed into GPT-1. It then made connections between them.
Then came the test: The scientists let the volunteers listen to some new stories. This time, GPT-1 was given only their brain activity recordings. The AI system then wrote out the stories according to the recordings. The results were very similar to the correct answers. The words weren't exactly the same. But they often carried the same meaning.
The scientists say that GPT-1 is the first AI system to turn people's thoughts into words. Some people have lost the ability to speak because of accidents or illnesses. In the future, this technology could be useful to them.
