Telepathy — the science fiction skill of silent communication through thought alone — is not real (yet) but a new device come close.
A company named Alterego has introduced a headset developed by MIT Media Lab that allows you to converse with AI assistants by merely thinking, and even with other people wearing the same device.
The headset detects signals that your brain sends out before you try to speak the words aloud, according to Cnet. Then using a bone conduction speaker, the user can hear the answer.
The device doesn't exactly capture thought, but it does capture the signals the precede speaking.
It also has a camera. Users can point to an object and silently ask AI what the object is. AI will answer silently.
You can even use the wearable to type, hands free, as quickly as you think.
