Meta's Brain2Qwerty v2 Decodes Typed Sentences at 61% Word Accuracy
The non-invasive pipeline, based on magnetoencephalography (MEG), is a large improvement over earlier surgery-free methods, but it remains far from the below-2% error rate of surgical implants.

Meta's Brain2Qwerty v2 decodes typed sentences from non-invasive MEG signals at 61% word accuracy, with the best participant reaching 78% and more than half of sentences at one word error or fewer. The pipeline combines a convolutional enco…
