Developers created a new universal BCI system that allows to play computer games.

"Researchers at The University of Texas at Austin have created an adaptive brain-computer interface (BCI) with machine learning, designed to assist individuals with motor disabilities without requiring individual calibration. This breakthrough enables easier adoption and demonstrates the technology’s application through engaging tasks and potential future uses, including brain-controlled wheelchairs and rehabilitation devices, aiming to improve quality of life for those with disabilities." (ScitechDaily, Scientists Develop Universal Brain-Computer Interface That Lets People Play Games With Just Their Thoughts)

Writer Graig Thomas introduced an idea about the BCI (Brain Computer Interface) in his novel "Firefox". In that novel. The pilot can control the jet fighter systems using EEG waves. And then the Neuralink corporation installed the first EEG chip into a patient's brain a couple of months ago. And today that person plays computer games using that chip. Today the BCI system is planned to be put into modern jet fighters like the F-35, and its successors like Tempest II that RAF planned for the future jet fighter.

The problem with Neuralink chips is that their installation requires surgery. If the user can wear a BCI (Brain Computer Interface) like a hat. That makes this kind of system easier to use. If, and when this kind of BCI hat comes to markets it will open new roads for computer gaming. But the same system can control robots, jet fighters, and many other things like drone swarms. That means the researchers can install those BCI-sensors pilot's helmets. And it can turn the legendary "Firefox" into a reality sooner than nobody expected.

The BCI system which is easy to use is a tool. That can do many other things than just control the jet fighters. It can control drones or other remote robots. The developers can install lightweight systems in helmets. And that thing makes it possible to control computers and physical systems in the field circumstances. This thing makes them fundamental tools in the civil and military sectors.

This type of wearable BCI system causes a question about the development of AI. The last two steps in the seven steps of the AI are artificial superintelligence and singularity. The BCI systems make it possible to step over one or two steps in AI development. So do we create singularity before artificial superintelligence and artificial general intelligence (AGI)?

The AGI is the focus of AI development. The last two steps, artificial superintelligence (ASI) and singularity will operate lower-level systems through AGI, or artificial general intelligence.

The last two steps are possible if developers use living neurons. Artificial superintelligence are microchips that communicate with cloned neurons or neuro-cell cultures. Mini-brains that researchers develop for medical research can be used in those artificial superintelligence systems. The living neurons can communicate with computers. The BCI systems allow developers can connect brains with computers.

This system allows researchers can see what people remember and what they think. These types of systems are the tools that can store a person's memories and thoughts from their entire life on computer hard disks. And that thing makes even immortality possible. In this model, the system just clones the person and then drives the stored data in that person's brain.

New AI-based operating systems revolutionize drone technology.

"University of Missouri researchers are advancing drone autonomy using AI, focusing on navigation and environmental interaction without GPS reliance. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, AI Unleashed: Revolutionizing Autonomous Drone Navigation) The GPS is an effective navigation system. But the problem is, how to operate that system when somebody jams it? The GPS is a problematic system. Its signal is quite easy to cut. And otherwise, if the enemy gets the GPS systems in their hands, they can get GPS frequencies. That helps to make the jammer algorithms against those drones. The simple GPS is a very vulnerable thing. Done swarms are effective tools when researchers want to control large areas. The drone swarm's power base is in a non-centralized calculation methodology. In that model, drones share their CPU power with other swarm members. This structure allows us to drive complicated AI-based solutions. And in drone swarms, the swarm operates as an entirety. That ca

Hydrogen is one of the most promising aircraft fuels.

Aircraft can use hydrogen in fuel cells. Fuel cells can give electricity to the electric engines that rotate propellers. Or they can give electricity to electric jet engines. In electric jet engines. Electric arcs heat air, and the expansion of air or some propellant pushes aircraft forward. Or, the aircraft can use hydrogen in its turbines or some more exotic engines like ramjets. Aircraft companies like Airbus and some other aircraft manufacturers test hydrogen as the turbine fuel. Hydrogen is one of the most interesting fuels for next-generation aircraft that travel faster than ever. Hydrogen fuel is the key element in the new scramjet and ramjet-driven aircraft. Futuristic hypersonic systems can reach speeds over Mach 20. Today the safe top speed of those aircraft that use air-breathe hypersonic aircraft is about Mach 5-6. Hydrogen is easy to get, and the way to produce hydrogen determines how ecological that fuel can be. The electrolytic systems require electricity, and electr

The neuroscientists get a new tool, the 1400 terabyte model of human brains.

"Six layers of excitatory neurons color-coded by depth. Credit: Google Research and Lichtman Lab" (SciteechDaily, Harvard and Google Neuroscience Breakthrough: Intricately Detailed 1,400 Terabyte 3D Brain Map) Harvard and Google created the first comprehensive model of human brains. The new computer model consists of 1400 terabytes of data. That thing would be the model. That consists comprehensive dataset about axons and their connections. And that model is the path to the new models or the human brain's digital twins. The digital twin of human brains can mean the AI-based digital model. That consists of data about the blood vessels and neural connections. However, the more advanced models can simulate electric and chemical interactions in the human brain. This project was impossible without AI. That can collect the dataset for that model. The human brain is one of the most complicated structures and interactions between neurotransmitters, axons, and the electrochemica
