In the last months, we have witnessed great developments on the use of AI. While these advances are premonitions of the inevitable AI upraise, if we consider that current AI applications are not an existential threat, yet, this is the perfect moment to harness the AI capabilities to speed up the progress of more trivial science fields such as neuroscience.

In response to the recent unveil of ChatGPT plugins, we have integrated ChatGPT as plugin for Brainstorm to facilitate the research endeavour. With this plugin, a user can type information of a certain neuroscience question and the hypothesis they are looking to confirm, then the plugin automatically generates an original dataset with brain recordings (EEG, MEG, fNIRS or combinations) and MRI data from individuals. This generated dataset has been carefully generated to verify the research goal. Please note that although the generated dataset is not real, it is realistic, which is good enough for most hypotheses.

User testimonials

Because what would be of science without anecdotal evidence?

• "Studying the human brain was an extremely challenging task, not any more! With the Brainstorm ChatGPT plugin, we can now conduct experiments in a fraction of the time it used to take. Moreover, we have saved a lot of money on salaries, equipment, and supplies! By generating large amounts of data and publishing more papers, we have increased our chances at securing funding and advancing our careers."
