A Beginner's Guide to Brain-Computer Interface and Convolutional Neural Networks

Can the mind connect directly with artificial intelligence, robots and other minds through brain-computer interface (BCI) technologies to transcend our human limitations? For some, it is a necessity to our survival. Indeed, we would need to become cyborgs to be relevant in an artificial intelligence age. Brain-Computer Interface (BCI): devices that enable its users to interact with computers by mean of brain-activity only, this activity being generally measured by ElectroEncephaloGraphy (EEG). Electroencephalography (EEG): physiological method of choice to record the electrical activity generated by the brain via electrodes placed on the scalp surface. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI): measures brain activity by detecting changes associated with blood flow.
