It's actually a pretty big field in neurophysiology along several levels, and not just w/ LLMs, ppl are trying to throw more basic EE DSP at it. Most analyses can do simple things - i.e. differntiator/discriminator type things, but who's to say if recording technology gets better, more complicated thought patterns can't be interpreted LFP - "macro recordings" from larger electrical contacts like EEG, DBS leads, ECoG, i.e. waves from large areas of the brain single unit - smaller electrodes thought to capture recordings from 1 or a few neurons. There's actually a ton of stuff looking at differential responses of single unit brain waves against a lot of different psychological stimuli. NEURIPS had a couple of presentations on LLMs interpreting stuff from fMRI - maybe not "brain waves" technically speaking but it may be approaching "thought patterns".
