Welche Auswirkungen hat die ständige Nutzung digitaler Technologien auf unser Denken & Fühlen? Darüber sprechen Expert:innen nächsten Donnerstag (4.5.) um 19 Uhr in unserem #HerrenhäuserForum „Gehirn 2.0. – Wie der digitale Alltag unser Gehirn verändert“. volkswagenstiftung.de/de/veranstaltu…

2030 is now 80 months away. Each remaining month is 1.25% of the time we have left to reduce global emissions to 45% below to 2010 levels -which the IPCC say is necessary to stay below 1.5C Currently, we're ~20% above 2010 levels & still headed in the wrong direction 😬

This article was written 110 years ago. 110 years and we still aren't doing what we need to do to address the climate crisis. No time to wait. Let's make 2023 the year we #ActOnClimate #Climate #energy #ClimateEmergency #renewables #GreenNewDeal.

incredible - it is only May 4th :-(

Hat eigentlich jeder in der Politik dies verstanden und verinnerlicht? Es kommt mir nicht so vor.

Dear Polititians (and other humans also) - please just briefly listen to Prof. H. Lesch („... wir haben keine E-Fuels und keine Kern-Fusion usw. ...“) and finally accept that #ClimateChange is a #ClimateEmergency and needs to be taken serious in Germany and world-wide. Thank you.

Ok, so Germany is likely to miss its climate targets for 2030 and currently doesn't have a plan of how to speed up climate action. The response of the German government? Criminalizing peaceful activists. It's a global trend, and it should worry all of us. edition.cnn.com/2023/05/24/eur…

Mich besorgt die unverhältnismäßige Kriminalisierung von jungen Menschen, die zurecht um ihre Zukunft bangen und gewaltfrei demonstrieren. Was ist schlimmer und folgenreicher: vorübergehend den Verkehr aufzuhalten, oder Klimaziele nicht einzuhalten mit Folgen für Jahrtausende?

This is a joint project with Sebastian Knoblich, Marjolein van Os, Martin Butz and Vera Demberg. We'll discuss how the predictability of events affects the choice of references in production and how speakers disambiguate references under noisy conditions.

showing clearly how much our prior assumptions matter when interpreting utterances (and written text) as well as when choosing utterances ourselves.

We are working on a new manuscript with Michael Franke and Martin Butz where we build an #RSA model of indirectness as a strategy to avoid a conflict of beliefs in the common ground. We also add a series of behavioral experiments to assess model predictions. psyarxiv.com/26j3t/

Want to know how to machine-learn contextualized, compositional world models from sensorimotor experiences and use them for planning and RL? Our #ICLR2024 spotlight paper provides an answer.

Food for thought about how our brain does it, that is, THINK -- and how it thereby uses CONTEXT INFERENCE to not get overwhelmed but to focus on what seems relevant -- consider reading our new review paper on "Contextualizing Predictive Minds" #Context
