I think this technique if developed might help scientists read the thoughts of people. Is this a good thing ? I doubt it, because it will violate our privacy.

u r thinking too far... imagine how much it would help our society, if, for example it can help bringing the truth to the fore from political leaders....
Pkl. Thursday , afternoon, 3.50 pm Jan 3, 2008 The report hopes to inch to make a dependable guessing of the hidden intentions of Agents bent on committing unsocial behaviour by working out their Brain responses to sundry drawings of tools and other such artifacts , and then the same to be analysed by resourceful computer simulations!. it sounds as if a Forensic breakthrough is round the corner , and anti -social criminals are ,now out for grabs for law-enforcers ,efficiently. This is making a too much of some little steps in interpreting neural responses of our pretending Agents. It is not always possible to eliminate doubts , as one jumps to the intentions of the pretender from its correlates in the neural traces as yet.The versatility of our psyche is such that no single fixed deconstruction can deliver us to the "thoughts " from the neural events as scanned by sophisticated MRI.Obviously , this is journalistic levity ,with little to support it in the work already done.D.

If such machines are to be used by a husband or wife , their most intimate secret desires will relieved and they can say quits each other and courts will be filled with millions of divorse papers !

man is natural being not created by any fake god/allah.
thus due to natural selection he wants to breed more and have more partners and vice versa for women.
as human society has evoled from tribal society into urban society marriage and monogamy has become ppular.but by birth genetic and anture man is not monogamous creature but polygaous by nature.

Ravi... I disagree with you. The machine will only be able to judge what the man thinks..and never ever it will succeed in reading a women's mind - even God failed to do so.

That's because women are complex & confused... Intution & Emotions govern women, unlike men who are simple, logical & analytical.

It will mostly show 'no data found' since most of our parliamentarians talk without even thinking.
