Elmind has launched a new AI-powered headband designed to help people with insomnia fall asleep “on demand.” The $399 device utilizes advanced technologies, including electroencephalography (EEG) to read brain waves in real time, which are then processed by AI algorithms to translate into soothing sound pulses that promote relaxation and rapid sleep. The device, whose algorithms were developed by experts at MIT, is based on a non-invasive “neuromodulation” technique. This technology “cancels out” the noise in brain waves that keep a person awake, with the headband emitting low-frequency sound vibrations that synchronize with the brain’s natural rhythms.

Fifteen years ago, Dr. Alia Crum, a psychology professor at Stanford University, conducted an experiment that revolutionized our understanding of metabolism. Her team gave the same type of milkshake to two groups of participants, but with a simple trick in the labels. The first group was told they…
