Brain–computer interface control with artificial intelligence copilots - Nature Machine Intelligence
AI copilots are integrated into brain–computer interfaces, enabling a paralysed participant to achieve improved control of computer cursors and robotic arms. This shared autonomy approach offers a promising path to increase BCI performance and clinical viability.
