Synthesis:
After a research carried out by American scientifics, it could be determined that every time more it is closer to predict the thoughts at least with an 87% of accuracy. It was like that that, thanks to neuronals signals emitted by our brain, it was put a functional magnetic resonance machine (fMRI) to collect information about 7 voluntaries people in an experiment, thus, with the appropriate pattern could detect the activation patterns of the brain and its behaviour. This algorithm was designed from 42 different concepts, such as color, ubication, between others, which comformed complex thoughts. In spite of never before it had been tried to identify the construction blocks of a thought, the investigators affirm that these are all equal indenpendently of the language or the culture that the person employ. Besides, this advance allows not just predicting a thought, although if it is just based on a brain scanning, but it also allows receiving information and deducing the way in which the brain would be activated to form it.
Opinion:
In my opinion, I think that these last technologies that have been drived are very good tools to improve the way of analyze the behaviour of a person, and consequently, the treatments that could be given to someone with brain problems. It is in this way that this kinds of thecnologies could be used to improve the peoples life such as their health. However, I also think that technology can't be abused by us, because at long term, it could bring us just problems, and there would be a point in which us, the humans beings, would be controlled by it. Predict a thought is something very interesting that could catch the attention of anybody, but I think it is a little exaggerated, since, people wouldn't have the prevacy enough and also there would be a point in which it could get bored.
Glossary:
- fMRI: Functional magnetic resonance machine which is used to make brain scannings.
- Algorithm: An ordered set of systematic operations that allows to make a calculation and to find a type of problems.
- Technology: Set of instruments, technical resources or procedures used in a particular field or sector.
