Abstract: Described herein is a system and method for controlling a computing system by an AI network based upon an electroencephalograph (EEG) signal from a user. The user's EEG signals are first detected as the user operates an existing controller, during which time the associated artificial intelligence (AI) system learns by correlating the EEG signals with the commands received from the controller. Once the AI system determines that there is sufficient correlation to predict the user's actions, it can take control of the computing system and initiate commands based upon the user's EEG signal in place of the user's actions with the controller. At this point, weights in the AI network may be locked so that further commands from the controller, or the lack thereof, do not reduce correlation with the EEG signals. In some embodiments, the AI network may initiate commands faster than the user would be able to do.
