Erin Kunz of Stanford University indicates that brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) can restore speech for paralyzed individuals by decoding signals from the brain's motor cortex, revealing intended speech.
The tendency toward passive visual consumption is tied to 'commodity fetishism,' where society is dominated by both tangible and intangible things, culminating in a spectacle of images.
"Our main goal is creating a flexible speech neuroprosthesis that enables a patient with paralysis to speak as fluently as possible, managing their own cadence, and be more expressive by letting them modulate their intonation," says Maitreyee Wairagkar, a neuroprosthetics researcher at UC Davis who led the study.
Legal professionals should reconsider their reliance on faxes, as modern communication methods like email are more reliable and efficient, given that fax technology has been outdated for years.
