You’re indulging in a bit of scaremongering - the technology monitors movements in the jaw, not thoughts in the head.

My fear is that this technique facilitates existing tech that can monitor neural activity directly from the brain. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/read-your-mind-brain-waves-thoughts-locked-in-syndrome-toyohashi-japan-a7687471.html …

That’s my fear, too, but it doesn’t mean you need to jettison logic - measuring micro-movements is unrelated to whatever tech may one day read our thoughts, which cause zero physical movement.

I was talking about the neural net aspect (machine learning)

Yeah, still don’t find it scary - it is about picking up muscle movements in the jaw. There’s plenty out there to be scared of, but maybe not this. Interesting though, thanks for tweeting it.

Picking up muscle movements in the jaw is useless unless you can create a vocabulary of correlations with them. Neural nets successfully did this with 90%+ accuracy. This is scary as it can easily be applied to neural impulses: https://medium.com/neuromation-io-blog/can-a-neural-network-read-your-mind-5d3901e1dd19 …
