Advancements in Brain-Reading Wearables

Wearable devices, so these are brain sensors

that are starting to be embedded in everyday devices,

but until now have been a number of niche companies

that really have focused on mindfulness and meditation.

The use of, for example, brain sensors

that can pick up electrical activity in the brain

at a pretty low resolution, but advances in AI

have both improved what the signal is

that can come from the brain,

and enabled the miniaturization of those products.

As a lot of the major tech companies

start to invest in these brain sensors,

it's a huge, I think, untapped market in many ways

of integrating them into everyday devices.

These are earbuds, or watches, or headphones,

and the soft cups around the ears.

Many of those products are hitting the market this year,

and others are hitting them within the next two years,

such that people can listen to music, a phone call, et cetera

while having those devices in ears.

Initially, what they will be capable of doing

is very high-level brain state reading.

Things like, are you tired, are you paying attention,

is your mind wandering, are you happy or sad?

They maybe enable interaction like up, down, left, right

for interaction with other technologies,

and they're being embedded into things

like virtual reality headsets.

Did you know Apple just applied for a patent

so that they can retrofit AirPods to read your mind?

AirPods, they're fitting them

with electromagnetic sensors.

Do you guys remember when we talked about

they could hook a brain machine up to a person,

and they could look at something,

and they could use AI to generate the picture?

So that technology, rather than a full helmet,

they have successfully mapped via sensors in AirPods,

they've successfully done the same thing.

So what they said, I was reading in neuroscience.com

or something like that, I was reading an article

and it said what they're able to do is read that sensor

and they said everybody's electromagnetic pulses

are different.

And so it's not just an immediate read what you're thinking

and then regurgitate it, it's a process of learning.

And so they mine and log all of the thoughts,

all of the pulses.

So they're basically like data mining your brain.

It's similar to like analyzing your behavior

on the internet, what you look at, what you save,

how long you look at something

and then feeding you advertisements

associated with this stuff.

We are literally creating the technology

to data mine your thoughts.

In the current headphones?

No.

Yeah, yeah.

Even the current headphones, can they do this?

No, but listen to this.

But they said, the article I found said

they did it successfully five years ago.

Weird.

Come on Steve.

You know how they like updated the iPhone 15 in France

with a software update so it wasn't spinning out radiation?

Oh yeah.

They probably can do the same thing with all their-

Can we fix the radiation?

Think about the iPhone, like the heartbeat sensor

and all that stuff, not the iPhone, the watch.

Stuff they're taking out.

Like this could be a behind the scenes,

like they're like, we don't like what you're doing

with the tech, so we're trying to shut you down.

And how is the easiest way to shut you down?

Not just by analyzing what you're doing with technology,

what you're looking at, what you're saving on social media,

what you're reposting and sharing with other people,

but to what you're thinking.

Apple has in fact filed for a patent last July.

Not recently, last July.

And we are just now starting to hear about this, that.

they could theoretically turn AirPods into a health device

to scan the electromagnetic activity in your brain

to read your mind, essentially.

Yahoo News is the only mainstream media outlet

that I could possibly find that was reporting on this stuff.

This image here that you're seeing on the screen

shows what they're trying to do to retrofit these AirPods

with the electromagnetic sensors.

So essentially they'll have sensors

all over the little earpiece,

like the external piece that you pop over it

that you put into your ear.

And there's also sensors going all the way down

into the AirPod as it hangs out.

But they're calling this,

at least in the very few media articles that I'm seeing,

a health device.

The same way that they read your heartbeat

through an Apple Watch,

or they scan your blood pressure through an Apple Watch,

or you have the health app on your phone

that syncs with when you go to Orange Theory class

or use a heart rate monitor or anything like that.

I would argue this goes far beyond the role

of a health device and is more of a mind control device,

but you guys can make up your own minds on that.

Electrodes in the housing of the earphones

would measure bio signals

and electrical activity from the brain.

That could include EEGs, electromyography,

and electrooculography, et cetera.

And again, here's that diagram for what that looks like.

Basically all around the AirPod,

there's going to be sensors

with both what's inside of your ear canal

and what ends up hanging out of your ear canal.

I haven't seen the New York Times

or the Wall Street Journal write articles about this,

and yet it's public, it's out there.

This is just readily accessible for anyone to find.

It's public record.

And they're essentially telling us

they've been doing this for years and years and years.

If you guys have never seen a patent application,

they are incredibly difficult to try to decode.

And if you don't read a lot of government documentation

to begin with, this might make your head want to explode.

So we're going to cover this very briefly.

But basically they're trying to perfect technology

that they've already been working on

and or create new technology that covers your headphones

in a set of electrodes that communicate with each other

and to something else.

Filed on July 20th, 2023.

In all of these different figures,

they're trying to explain where they are.

putting all of these sensors. And so you can see it literally covers the entirety of the AirPod

that will all be able to communicate with one another. Even on the little like rubber earpieces

that you put over the AirPod, there will be electrodes able to communicate with each other

and essentially to read your brain. So whether they're actually saying this in writing or not,

what they're telling you is not just are they reading your mind, not just are they taking the

data from the earphones that you're wearing to analyze what you're thinking about. After the

analysis, they process that data, they feed it into an algorithm and they push it back out as

an output, not just an input to the electrodes in these sensors to try to influence your thoughts,

your brain, your mind, your values, your opinions.
