The Car That Learned to Disagree

What if a machine could correct its own mistake before you even gave another command?

Neuroscientists are exploring how brain signals associated with detecting errors can help experimental interfaces correct their actions.

Now imagine a car that responds to your brain before you touch the wheel. First, it saves you. Then it intervenes when there is no danger.

When does correction become control?

Inspired by Weger et al., Nature Communications (2026). The driving scenarios are speculative fiction.
