I think when they say the scientists envision being able to convert full thoughts to text, that’s more like people 100 years ago saying they envision us having flying cars today. were no where near either of those things. BCI’s are mostly used for people with disabilities so they can convert a very simple brain signal like try to move arm into a very simple command like move wheelchair forward it’s still currently extremely impossible to decipher more complex ideas like an inner monolog, it isn’t handled by just turning off or on a single brain region the way movement is.
so I think you have nothing to worry about for this ultimate truth detector thing. not something that would be developed in our lifetime or even our grandkids lifetime imo
We have flying cars. They’re called helicopters.  Also another reason we don’t have “flying cars” is that if your engine breaks down you die.

I’m not trying to be pedantic cause I’d actually kinda love to be wrong here, do you think you could find your source for that art thing? I’d love to read more about it, my understanding was that progress in this field was slow compared to the scales we’re talking about here
