The team tried decoding the brain signal data into individual words at a time, rather than whole sentences, but this increased the error rate to 38 per cent even for the best performance. This will make it hard to scale up the system to a larger vocabulary because each new word increases the number of possible sentences, reducing accuracy.
Sophie Scott at University College London says we are a long way from being able to translate brain signal data comprehensively.

Reading over what I wrote, I recognise that, even though there is room for elaboration, at this moment these words accurately capture my position.
I have found the words to express my thought. The gulf between our solitary thoughts and the words that would convey them to others constantly confronts us all. The thoughts we struggle to articulate might be as momentous as a transformative moral epiphany or as ordinary as an insight into a movie or the hurtful behaviour of a friend. They might seem hopeful or alarming, frivolous or serious, lead us to find value in certain things, or worry about others. They might be thoughts that we long had but never articulated or instantaneous insights in which something entirely new and unfamiliar suddenly comes to mind.
T he experience of getting clear on a thought, with the help of language, has received surprisingly little scrutiny. For example, turning the key, I might think to myself that the door is shut. No sooner than I have this thought, I know that I think it. While I could be wrong about the door my lock might be broken , not even a throng of neuroscientists could shake my conviction that I am having this thought.
Impressed by the special security of our knowledge of our thoughts in such cases, philosophers have sought to understand it and use it to lay the foundation for all our knowledge. The hard cases, in which we must work to get clear on our opaque thoughts, have gotten far less attention.
These cases were similarly neglected in other fields. Linguists, who have studied the abstract rules of grammar and meaning that allow us to comprehend a boundless range of novel thoughts, have uniformly evaded the question of how we apply such rules to produce utterances.
And yet, venturing to investigate these cases can illuminate the deeper challenges that we face in articulation, transform our conception of ourselves and our relation to our own thoughts, and help us develop our ideas in other creative pursuits. Familiar as these cases are, they invite some basic questions: what is it for a thought to be clear?
What made our initial thought unclear? And how do we make a thought clear, in the relevant sense? These questions engage fundamental issues about the relation between thought and language, and between the unconscious and conscious mind.
Our way into them starts with two observations that seem to contradict each other. We need to chisel away at imprecise formulations, while guarding against words that blur what we think. The first observation is that articulating our thoughts, in the hard cases, is our way of discovering what we are thinking. They could come to us as a result of habit, their repetition by other speakers, or just our affinity for the way they sound.
The careful selection that we exercise in the process stands in tension with the ignorance that we hope it will remedy. At the same time, our choices of words make sense to us, and so it seems that we must make them for a reason. Compare: in describing a picture or translating a sentence into another language, we have the picture or sentence clearly in mind and search for the words that would fit it. And even if we serendipitously stumble on the right formulation — eg, in the mouth of a friend or on an internet discussion forum — how will we know that it captures what we had in mind?
T o try to resolve the paradox, one might point out that language functions not only as a medium for expressing thoughts but also as a means for developing them. The act of expression often exposes gaps and sloppiness in our thinking: ideas, once spoken or written down, can turn out to be less compelling than they first appeared. As soon as we try to articulate these thoughts, our confusion becomes apparent. This common experience could naively tempt one to think that, in all cases where articulation is hard, the formulations that we eventually arrive at add something new to our initial thoughts.
Clarifying what we think, according to this view, might not lie in expressing our settled thought but in making up our minds about an issue, by constructing a thought that is more definite and coherent. Things are not so simple, however.
While it might, in some cases, dissolve the paradox to view the process of reaching clarity as the construction of thoughts, it is, at best, only half the picture. Our thoughts can be more definite than what we can readily articulate. One need not be a mathematical or philosophical visionary to have felt this frustration.
The jagged nature of the interaction might be responsible for the sense of fissure within the mind, reported by many writers and thinkers.
