Yes, but not perfectly
Yes, it's possible to reconstruct images from brain activity, but not perfectly. Reconstructions from viewing images were better than from memory, and dream reconstructions are still blurry blobs.
- 🧠 Scientists can decode brain activity to reconstruct images a person is viewing with surprising accuracy.
- 🤔 Reconstructing images from memory is much harder, with results often only capturing general facial features or expressions.
- 😴 Dream decoding is in its infancy, with current reconstructions appearing as abstract blobs, though categories of content can be predicted.
- ⚖️ Ethical lines are blurry; powerful technology requires careful consideration of its use and who wields it.
