The Mind-Reading Machine: Scientists say they have been able to monitor with scans what people are thinking. "Our study represents an important but very early stage step towards eventually building a machine that can track a person's consciousness on a second-by-second basis.

But we are still a long way off from developing a universal mind-reading machine." Link
