Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem used AI to map brain activity during conversations.

The tool could offer new insights into the neuroscience of language and cognition.

It could help improve technologies designed to recognize speech or help people communicate, the researchers say.

The study was published in the journal Nature Human Behaviour .

The study shows a link between the workings of a computational acoustic-to-speech-to language model and brain function.

"Comparing the brain with artificial neural networks is an important line of work," said Gašper Beguš , an associate professor in the Department of Linguistics at the University of California, Berkeley .
