Sound clip is pretty creepy.

    They picked the right song for it. This technology will be used to ensure compliance.

      Yeah, I’m chalking it up to a blinding idealistic need to help, that those quoted seem so excited by this. On its face, yeah, this stands to do an untold amount of good for those who for one reason or another are unable to communicate. In addition to the toys they’re talking about, like composing music (and I suppose other forms of art) from imagination rather than instruments/tools.

      I find research into the ability to mechanically read and monitor thoughts to be a little horrifying. It’s too much of a boon to think somebody wouldn’t use it, and it’s the last thing nobody could access.

        On the plus side this technology only works because the early brain processing for perception is well mapped out and straightforward to pick up.

        We’re a long way from this to them being able to see that I’m thinking “I hope they don’t find my wife’s corpse in the back yard”.
