Scientists in the UK have developed a machine that can scan and interpret brain patterns in order to read minds.
By scanning volunteers while they watched videos of different situations and interpreting the way the brain lit up in each case it was possible to determine which video they were thinking about afterwards based on that data alone.
A computer program that can read your mind has been developed by British scientists. In tests, it was able to access and interpret memories by scanning the brain patterns of volunteers.

No we are BORG!! My thoughts are my own.....I do not wish to be assimilated and be joined to the hive mind. Resistance is FUTILE! Instead of the cube we have the globe, and we connect via the internet to our hive With regards to the OP, we're progressing with this, only a couple months or so ago a similar experiment was conducted elsewhere (or it may have been the same people, can't remember now).

Wow, that's certainly not like I thought it was going to be. :/ It didn't even tell me 46% out of WHAT? It just said "that is much better than expected by chance". If they meant out of 100.. chance would 50, right?.. Oh, forget it. X.X
