Have you ever wondered how robotic arms can be controlled using your mind? This week on Your AI Injection, Deep speaks with Keiland Cooper, a cognitive scientist and neuroscientist at the University of California, Irvine, about the intersection of AI and neuroscience research. Cooper uses machine learning to study how the brain learns, remembers, and makes decisions.

We learn about how analysis of deep neural networks using AI can be used to classify and model brain activity, and how this information is being used to develop technology for people with disabilities. Cooper also teaches us how studying the brain can be used to better develop existing AI algorithms. As one means to explore this, we discuss ContinualAI, a non-profit research organization co-founded by Cooper with a focus on continuous learning.
