It will be a good day when I can leave my pocket computer in the pocket. Now we just need a nice speech shell to finally replace bash.
I wonder how inconspicious they will be able to make the interface. So far all mainstream digital enhancements have been non-invasive. Will this remain true?
Vocalizing internally is your muscles doing what they would do when you speak, but moving ever so slightly or not at all.
I guess the device was first build to recognize actually spoken speech with the signal that is transmitted to the muscles. They gradually reduced the speech levels, and now the system is efficient even with tiny signals.
Producing speech is an incredibly complex task; taking most humans more than 2 years to acquire. Loads of different muscles are involved. I would not be surprised if the different signals they collect in their device are more than redundant for the task.
I don't think your inner voice triggers anything, though. I find it more likely that you have to move your tongue as if you're speaking, but without opening your mouth.

I’ve seen a few articles about this (one called it “mind reading”) and I still don’t understand how it works. What exactly is “vocalizing internally”?

So you have to whisper?
No, you have to think that you're saying it - using your inner voice, which when used still triggers minute signals to the muscles used for speech.

Nice video of this: https://youtu.be/RuUSc53Xpeg
want.
Though I'm not sure how well it'll work with "snacking"...
