How Piramidal is using AI to decode the human brain
The human brain is ultimately one of the last frontiers — a paradoxical black box that we can’t even begin to understand ourselves.
But what if, just as paradoxically, AI could interpret the complexities of the brain to help identify and diagnose some of our most serious diseases?
That’s exactly what Y Combinator-backed startup Piramidal has set out to do. The company is building a first-of-its-kind foundation model that can detect and understand complex “brain language” or brainwaves. It can be fine-tuned to a range of electroencephalography (EEG) use cases and has implications in other areas of medicine, as well as in pharmacology and even consumer products.
