Israeli AI System Reconstructs Viewed Images from Brain Scans
Researchers at Israel's Weizmann Institute of Science have developed Brain-IT, an AI system that reconstructs images a person views by analyzing brain activity from fMRI scans. Unlike photographing thoughts, it interprets brain patterns to generate matching visuals, capturing key elements like layout and objects. The system addresses variability in individual brain responses by identifying shared patterns across 128 visual processing regions. Brain-IT requires about one hour of data to adapt to new users, improving on earlier models needing longer training.
