Brain computer or machine interfacing began with the noble aim of helping people with disabilities to restore their paralysis and speech. However, with the arrival of powerful artificial intelligence (AI), Internet connectivity, access to the cloud and all the new technologies bursting out on us, I predict that the tail will wag the dog. In other words, now that those needing rehabilitation (the tail) have been helped by others (the dog’s body), the technologies developed by the dog’s body to wag the tail will be used by the dogs on themselves. This prediction will briefly review [1] the history of brain computer interfacing (BCI), including some thoughts on which electrode will likely be accepted as the long-term electrode. [2] An outline of how the device will be connected to AI will be discussed. [3] Imperatives regarding the acceptance or rejection of AI robots will be debated. [4] Finally, and most important of all, the ethics of this technology need to be clarified.
