Gabe Newell on Brain Computer Interfaces (BCIs)/Neural Interfaces. Gabe Newell is the CEO of Valve, which is the company behind Steam, Valve Index (VR HMD), etc. Did you also know that Gabe Newell is the co founder of a Neural Interface company known as Starfish Neuroscience?

Inner speech decoders are becoming real and for people who've lost the ability to speak, that's everything. Thought-to-text isn't just a tech milestone. It's giving a voice back to the people who need it most.

Okay this is actually insane but I'm immune to this level of progress at this point: Stanford teams built a tiny brain implant + AI that can turn your *inner speech* into real spoken words. Not “try to talk” (attempted speech). Literally just THINK the words. Tested on 4

This is so cool! BCIs will help many people even before they help all of humanity combined.

Someone just put Brain Computer Interface (BCI) decoding in a web browser. PhantomLoop is an open-source tool that lets you run BCI decoders directly in your browser. You can visualize brain signals, prototype decoder models, and even generate them from plain English prompts.

Genie 3 dropped, btw. It is a real-time, fully interactive World Model, and that is the future of entertainment, gaming, simulations, etc., on the software side. Now, the hardware; BCIs/Neural Interfaces need to catch up to it to enable a full sensory experience. Do check it

3x Neuralink upgrade + Blindsight available soon. Also, a point to remember is that whole Brain Neural Interfaces are coming by 2028.
Congrats to the @Neuralink team for helping many people who have lost use of their body with our Telepathy implant that enables computer use simply by thinking! The next generation Neuralink cybernetic augment with 3X capability will be ready later this year. Pending regulatory

Check this out, I need to look a bit more into it since “EEG” was mentioned but other than that this should be theoretically possible with an advanced BCI and not just words in dreams but sharing a virtual space between millions/billions of people. Full sensory experience
🚨 A neurotechnology breakthrough may have just turned science fiction into reality. A Silicon Valley startup called REMspace claims to have achieved the first successful communication between two people during a lucid dream — an unprecedented step in the study of consciousness

🚨 NANOTECHNOLOGY - The entire manufacturing industry is secretly converging toward the same endgame -> and nobody's talking about it. ASML, 3D printing, advanced materials, robotics... they're all building toward Eric Drexler's vision: Atomically Precise Manufacturing (APM).

🔶 Hidden CES gem: Play For Dream demoed an MR headset stack that looks suspiciously future-proof: dual 4K Micro-OLED, 14ms RGB VST latency, Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2, 16GB RAM + 512GB storage, built for standalone + wireless PCVR streaming. Why it matters: Low-latency VST +
