technology take machines beyond human? hello, good to meet you. thank you for having us. thanks very much. neuroscientist alexander has spent a decade trying to understand how the rain works. iiii trying to understand how the rain works- trying to understand how the rain works. if we want to build intelligent rain works. if we want to build intelligent machines, - rain works. if we want to build intelligent machines, maybe i rain works. if we want to build i intelligent machines, maybe we want to make things that act more like human brains. that is kind of what the into neuroscience actually. this ear his neuroscience actually. this year his team neuroscience actually. this year his team had - neuroscience actually. this year his team had a - year his team had a breakthrough. using the same a! take that can understand language, they built a computer that can read minds. hide language, they built a computer that can read minds. that can read minds. we scan eole s that can read mi
ai development is mostly focused on mastering existing human skills. but could the technology take machines beyond human? hi, lara. hi. good to meet you. thank you for having us. come on in. thanks very much. neuroscientist alexander huth has spent a decade trying to understand how the brain works. if we want to build intelligent machines, maybe we want to make things that act more like human brains. so, that s kind of what got me into neuroscience, actually. this year, his team had a breakthrough. using the same ai tech that can understand language, they ve built a computer that can read minds. we scan people s brains with an fmri scanner while theyjust listen to stories. so, we track how their brains respond while they re listening to hours and hours of stories. the team in texas has trained the al on their own brains.
