Researchers have developed a groundbreaking non-invasive EEG-based system that can translate the inner speech of ALS patients into text. This novel machine learning model offers a promising path to restoring communication for individuals who have lost the ability to speak due to progressive paralysis, significantly outperforming previous non-invasive methods.
