Kind of a good news/bad news thing. We've actually had the ability to control video games with our minds for a while (there was a kickstarter for it a couple years ago), but on the other hand that also points out that advancements need to be done in BCI. AI could certainly help, but the big area to watch here is BCI. And more pointedly it's probably going to take most of this decade to handle integrating AI into R&D - it takes a while to get full benefit out of new technology.
