This article describes a new study using AI to identify sex differences in the brain with over 90% accuracy.
Key findings:
- An AI model successfully distinguished between male and female brains based on scans, suggesting inherent sex-based brain variations.
- The model focused on specific brain networks like the default mode, striatum, and limbic networks, potentially linked to cognitive functions and behaviors.
- These findings could lead to personalized medicine approaches by considering sex differences in developing treatments for brain disorders.
Additional points:
- The study may help settle a long-standing debate about the existence of reliable sex differences in the brain.
- Previous research failed to find consistent brain indicators of sex.
- Researchers emphasize that the study doesn’t explain the cause of these differences.
- The research team plans to make the AI model publicly available for further research on brain-behavior connections.
Overall, the study highlights the potential of AI in uncovering previously undetectable brain differences with potential implications for personalized medicine.
I do mean person born a male that wants to become female. Anti-trans people often make points that trans people are just forced into being trans by the trans-mafia (or whatever term they use) aka social pressure. A brain scan indicating a female brain would counter that. But as I said, they’d probably find other excuses “it’s a mental disease that can be treated” and so on and so forth.
That would embolden the anti-trans crowd.
Science is ongoing though, so who knows what the results will be.
