The researchers hope the \u201cmindreading\u201d tool could reveal more about how the brain works. It could also help locked-in people communicate and, incredibly, maybe even allow scientists to recreate the content of dreams.<\/p>\n

But other scientists warn that a similar approach could reveal people\u2019s inner thoughts and mental imagery, potentially without their consent.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s how AI is getting closer to reading images from the brain.<\/p>\n

How smaller, distributed batteries could help the grid<\/h3>\n

Large, utility-scale battery installations are coming online quickly around the world. But there\u2019s been pushback from communities, especially population-dense ones like NYC, because of concerns about relatively rare but high-profile battery fires.<\/p>\n

Faced with those obstacles, some startups are getting creative, finding ways to use relatively small batteries in unexpected places, from induction stovetops to food carts. By deploying these more consumer-focused batteries, the companies are helping people directly, cutting pollution or power bills.<\/p>\n

These units are small on their own, but could add up to a lot of capacity. And as batteries get cheaper, they could find their way into more corners of our lives.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s why batteries could help ease pressure on the grid.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
