Reading the mind by scanning the brain

I am very doubtful that this technique can really do what is claimed for it -- and notice that the researchers themselves claim only 70% accuracy, not nearly good enough for use in, say, criminal trials. But eventually, if not now, we will be able to do this -- with enormous implications, both good and bad.

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning: anything supporting transgender ideology, or negative toward Brexit, or in favor of a military draft or compulsory national service, will be deleted. I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent.

On work days there is likely to be a substantial delay in approving comments, since I can't do blog stuff in an office. For this I apologize.

Please be respectful -- no political comments on non-political posts, please.
