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.

'AI Safety for Everyone' is out now in @natmachintell.nature.com! Through an analysis of 383 papers, we find a rich landscape of methods that cover a much larger domain than mainstream notions of AI safety. Our takeaway: Epistemic inclusivity is important, the knowledge is there, we only need use it

What are goals? Can we model them as programs that produce rewards? In particular, can we model free-form creativity in game design this way? And learn to generate games like humans do? Our new paper in @natmachintell.bsky.social, led by @guydav.bsky.social and Graham Todd, shows that yes, we can!

From childhood on, people can create novel, playful, and creative goals. Models have yet to capture this ability. We propose a new way to represent goals and report a model that can generate human-like goals in a playful setting... 1/N
