Language is more strongly controlled by the left half of the brain, while other functions are more strongly controlled by the ...

Scientists have engineered a protein able to record the incoming chemical signals of brain cells (as opposed to just their ...

The human brain processes spoken language in a step-by-step sequence that closely matches how large language models transform text.

A new study reveals that the human brain processes spoken language in a sequence that closely mirrors the layered architecture of advanced AI language models. Using electrocorticography data from ...

The technology to decode our thoughts is drawing ever closer. Neuroscientists at the University of Texas have for the first time decoded data from non-invasive brain scans and used them to reconstruct ...

Scientists can finally hear the brain’s quietest messages—unlocking the hidden code behind how neurons think, decide, and ...

Brain activity during speech follows a layered timing pattern that matches large language model steps, showing how meaning builds gradually.

Is language core to thought, or a separate process? For 15 years, the neuroscientist Ev Fedorenko has gathered evidence of a language network in the human brain — and has found some similarities to ...

A mind-reading device seems like science fiction, but researchers say they're firmly on the path to building one. Using functional MRI (fMRI), a newly developed brain-computer interface can read a ...

My weekly language classes have taught me humility more than anything else. Ayaka Ono, my current Japanese teacher, estimates ...
