MIT student Arnav Kapur built an AI headset that reads your brain and pulls out your thoughts...🤯 It is called AlterEgo... No speaking it just turns your thoughts into words.... 👀...

Next level transhumanism stuff... Do people still think its crazy that the government can weaponize an ai & digital twin to distort & destroy the human mind & soul?

This proves they can hijack the brain in my opinion...

That means A.I. can do it as well…. That means rogue agencies can do it also This kid is the “frontman” for this disclosure probably Surprised they didn’t show him working in his parents garage

I agree, this is some of the craziest tech imaginable.. No way some college kid just thought it up, MIT or not... This proves are our fears that they can hijack the brain very easily at this point..

@onlydarkturtle @grok is this real?

Yes, AlterEgo is a real MIT Media Lab project developed by Arnav Kapur since 2018. It's a wearable that interprets silent speech by detecting neuromuscular signals from subvocalizing words, not directly reading brain thoughts. Feedback comes via bone conduction. It spun off into a startup in 2025; check for updates.

It's actually the US government (DARPA) inventing these technologies to slowly take over fully, but they create these young "geniuses" to take credit so we are not suspicious and accept it.

It's not telepathy. It's silent speech. You have to mouth the words.

Word on the street he is a CIA contractor now. Jkjk don’t put me on a list

Surely this could never be hacked and poses no real threat to humanity ✅

all great until the ai headset speaks back unskippable ads into your brain i am good i'll speak to the ai myself

AI has emerged as a manifestation of our collective consciousness. —— PDF / Book:

It's not telepathy, it's subvocalization. "It works by detecting the subtle neuromuscular signals in the jaw and face that are triggered when a person internally verbalizes words, without any actual sound or discernible movement."

You can easily fake this

You still have to mumble to yourself and it reads the muscles This is pure clickbait

Just wait until the government can read your thoughts…

Neuralink, but external. Eventually they’ll able to just point it at you from any distance.

This will be a game changer for people with disabilities

I can also stand in silence and add subtitles to the video while wearing a device on my head! 😄

This just proves that our brains are receivers and everything is energy and frequency... I am sure as this becomes widespread and people use it more, they will be able to resist it from reading their minds, and it might actually help humans become more aware of their own abilities.

My first thought would have been holy shit this is crazy before answering the question. So there were no thoughts before, in between, or after answering the question? It should have been spitting out other thoughts.. otherwise how does it know which thoughts to recite?

No thanks. I strjuggle to keep what I really think to myself as it is.

Until it starts creating your thoughts - which AI and media manipulation has already been altering them.

Now prove to us that’s actually what you are thinking.

No fucking thank you wtf

The project spun off into a company earlier this year, and Kapur demoed it live at TED in 2019.

Ya but how do you keep it from reading ALL your thoughts?

I smell bullshit

At this pace, Fringe is no longer just a TV series but feels like a documentary.

AI reading our thoughts? What could go wrong

This video is from 2018.

Trust me bro... The idea of having someone or something between you and the other person to communicate is quite disturbing.. say a hacker or foreign actor wants to alter the conversation... Plead guilty, propose a crime . Or destroy the relationship

@USAMRIID Iykyk

@Gt5Skier Can you think in Russian :-p

The only place where privacy still existed.

I’m no neuroscientist but for this to work surely you would need a physical connection to the brain like Neuralink.

What. Is. The. Cure. For. Cancer.???? We don’t even need stupid crap like this.
