Please enjoy my interview with Dr Mehdi Keramati (mehdi.keramati@city.ac.uk). In this episode, we highlighted the important relationship between AI and neuroscience. We heavily emphasized how AI can benefit from neuroscience, and vice-versa.

Dr Keramati has a Computational Neuroscience (PhD). He has worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Gatsby Computational Neuroscience Unit, and the Max Planck Center for Computational Psychiatry at the University College of London. Currently,  he actively researches artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Techniques at the Department of Psychology at the City, University of London. 

- Takeaway Notes: 

- Both AI and Neuroscience, share the same goal of understanding the secrets of human cognition.

- The relationship between these disciplines is a two-way street. 

- AI researchers can use ideas from neuroscience to build new technology, and neuroscientists learn from the behaviour of artificial agents to better interpret biological brains.

- Learning how the brain works, which, in turn, can inspire the design and development of artificial neural networks while reaffirming the validity of previously developed algorithms.
