Whats surprising about the findings is that for a group of people the last year turned out better than expected, or even better than a normal year.”He added “Of course, many hav

39、ogies to help such patients communicate require risky brain surgeries to implant electrodes. This new approach “could provide a practical path to help patients without the use of invasive methods,” says neuroscientist Jean-Rmi King, a Meta AI researcher in Paris. King and his colleagues trained a co
40、mputational tool to detect words and sentences on 56,000 hours of speech recordings from 53 languages. The tool, also known as a language model, learned how to recognize specific features of language. With the help of a computational method, the team tried to decode what participants had heard using
41、 just three seconds of brain activity data from each person. The team instructed the AI to match the speech sounds from the story recordings to patterns of brain activity that the AI computed as corresponding to what people were hearing. It then made predictions about what the person might have been
42、 hearing during that short time, given more than 1,000 possibilities. The correct answer was in the AIs top 10 guesses up to 73 percent of the time, the researchers found. The new study is “decoding of speech perception, not production,” King notes. Though speech production is the ultimate goal, for
