A computer implemented method synthesizes electroencephalograph signals. A number of processor units creates a training dataset comprising real electroencephalograph signals, speech signals correlating to the real electroencephalograph signals, and a set of human characteristics for the real electroencephalograph signals. The number of processor units trains a generative adversarial network using the training dataset to create a trained generative adversarial network. The trained generative adversarial network generates synthetic electroencephalograph signals in response to receiving new speech signals.

An embodiment for improved authentication of chatbot users for chat history recovery. The embodiment may record a first chat conversation between a first chat service operator and a first user, wherein the first chat conversation includes a first-step authentication and a chat history. The embodiment may detect a request to resume the first chat conversation. The embodiment may, in response to detecting the request to resume the first chat conversation, initiate a recovery process by sending a random-generated token to the first-step authentication. The embodiment may receive verification of the random-generated token. The embodiment may generate, by a large language model, one or more authentication questions based on content of the chat history. The embodiment may authenticate the first user based on one or more correct answers to the one or more authentication questions. The embodiment may resume the first chat conversation including the chat history.

A method, computer system, and a computer program product are provided for testing functional mobility and memory. Information is about a participant to an artificial intelligence (AI) engine and then instructions are provided to the participant to memorize a random set of steps. The participant is then asked to recall the random set of instruction steps and then to perform the steps memorized. The participant is asked to recall the steps again after the physical performance. The result of the test is analyzed and a final participant assessment is rendered based on the overall performance analysis. The participant is provided instructions and further monitored and recorded for the performance of the test using smart devices, video or similar means.
