That EEG helmet development is huge, even if it's only 40% accurate. The fact that it can be done at all just made it cross the threshold from sci-fi into just sci.

Higher accuracy was achieved in an earlier study where another team used large fMRI machines (it was featured in the version for May). There participants listened to audiobooks / speech while being in the large machine; I guess long training would be easier here but it's more limited since it's EEG. However, they claim they have exceeded 60% by now.
