Incredible generative tiling work by John Greene as part of his "Fleen" project

Gino's case against us has been dismissed. Scientists cannot effectively sue other scientists for exposing fraud/errors in their work. Those who work to correct the scientific record can sleep better tonight. Those who don’t want it corrected, well, I don’t care how they sleep.

New Video: youtu.be/Q9tgyVPytBk The Francesca Gino case vs Harvard and Data Colada is finally over. Here's my recap of the events, hopefully the last time I talk about it.

I want to give thanks to Nikolaus Kriegeskorte for useful discussions that encouraged me to take the plunge on writing this up. I'm still incorporating small edits into the paper so feedback greatly appreciated 🙌 biorxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… openreview: openreview.net/forum?id=zMdnn…

🧵 NEW PAPER: Neurons that nonlinearly integrate multiple sensory and cognitive variables help enable flexible cognition. In this study with @yaoda_xu, we use fMRI to noninvasively measure nonlinear mixed selectivity across the human visual system. 1/ direct.mit.edu/imag/article/d…

My best/most research was never ever previously proposed in any grant. Actual research outcomes are weakly correlated to proposed research. So we need less emphasis on proposed research and more on recent accomplishments…

Have you had private doubts whether we'll ever understand the brain? Whether we'll be able explain psychological phenomena in an exhaustive way that ranges from molecules to membranes to synapses to cells to cell types to circuits to computation to perception and behavior?

Sora — "A golden retriever, with a shiny wet coat, skillfully balances on a surfboard as it rides a gentle wave at Pacifica Beach. The dog's tongue hangs out in excitement, and its eyes are focused on the horizon. The backdrop includes the wide expanse of the ocean with rolling

New paper with Leon and Erin Grant! Why do we see localized receptive fields so often, even in models without sparisity regularization? We present a theory in the minimal setting from Alessandro Ingrosso and Sebastian Goldt

🚀 Excited to share our work at #NeurIPS2024! We show how billion parameter VLMs lose to a two-layer MLP on MNIST. Come by our poster presentation at West Ballroom A-D #5211, today from 4:30–7:30 PM PST. A 🧵:

I greatly enjoyed this interview on Machine Learning Street Talk It covers a wide range of topics I am interested in (open-endedness, AI-GAs, AI safety, etc.), includes my scientific origin story, and has great visuals edited in. Thanks Tim Scarfe! youtube.com/watch?v=mw5WID…

Didn't know about this, not only intellectual but also genetic link between George Boole and Geoffrey E. Hinton. Simon Peyton Jones gave an amazing talk at #DarwinCollege. Great content, engaging delivery, and he spoke so fast I couldn’t zone out like I often do during talks🙂

AI could enable new mechanisms for participatory democracy. Imagine a million citizen assemblies on Zoom, transcribed and summarized by AI models. Exciting progress toward one piece of this puzzle from Michiel Bakker, summerfieldlab @summerfieldlab.bsky.social, Matt Botvinick et al. ...

There are a number of permanent positions available in Glasgow, UK. This includes a professorship for 7T and layer-fMRI work. nature.com/naturecareers/… posted on behalf of Lars Muckli now at: larsmuckli.bsky.social

🧵I enjoyed and recommend Hossenfelder's eloquent book "Lost in Math" on the state of theoretical physics. However, this foray into vision science & philosophy is unfortunately rather sloppy and would quite mislead a curious viewer looking to learn more about brain science. 1/

Absolute honor to be awarded the David Marr Medal by the Applied Vision Association Looking forward to my talk “Five Illusions Challenge Our Understanding of Visual Experience” Thanks so much to NOMIS Foundation, The Italian Academy, Center for Science and Society, Nikolaus Kriegeskorte, Columbia University's Zuckerman Institute

It's publication day for 📘Elusive Cures. What a moment! 1st book, 1st time on Mindscape. Here, Sean Carroll and I have a wide-ranging conversation about the brain, including: Why are brain and mental disorders so hard to understand and treat?
