Why not do an MSc in computer science with a focus on AI? If you decide you like research, you can continue on down that path, if not, you will have a valuable credential that you can use to get a good job. Many subfields of AI are heavily neuroscience-inspired, so that part of your undergrad coursework will come in handy.
