Even if this was possible. The 5th amendment would absolutely protect against this kind of thing in the US.
I feel like you have to be unreasonably pessimistic to think that those would be the 1st areas where such a technology is used.

5th amendment only protects you from incriminating yourself in potential criminal proceedings.
It does not prevent your employer from mandating you use it at work and then any data gathered being subpoenaed.
Or let's say it becomes something more ubiquitous like a smartphone, everyone uses it daily and all that data is gathered - your 5th amendment isn't going to do shit.

Additionally, the 5th would only protect what you say. It doesn’t, for example, prohibit search or manipulation of your body. For example, fingerprints are not protected by the 5th. I don’t see why brain fingerprints would be.
