In a new study, out now in Attention Perception & Psychophysics, Thomas Cherian (Thomas Cherian) and I have some exciting insights into what we see when an object is occluded. Like all good things, the origin of this study was simple curiosity. Consider the picture below: 1/25

Are there fundamental barriers to AI alignment once we develop generally-capable AI agents? We mathematically prove the answer is *yes*, and outline key properties for a "safe yet capable" agent. 🧵👇 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2502.05934

New brain/language study w/ Ev (like in 'evidence', not Eve) Fedorenko 🇺🇦! We applied task-agnostic individualized functional connectomics (iFC) to the entire history of fMRI in the Fedorenko lab, parcellating nearly 1200 brains into networks based on activity fluctuations alone. doi.org/10.1101/2025.0… . 🧵

In a study now out in eLife - the journal, Georgin Jacob Pramod RT/ಪ್ರಮೋದ್ ರಾ ತಾ and I have some exciting results: a novel computation that helps the brain solve disparate visual tasks, a novel brain region that performs this computation....what's not to like?!

🤖🧠Paper out in Nature Communications! 🧠🤖 Bayesian models can learn rapidly. Neural networks can handle messy, naturalistic data. How can we combine these strengths? Our answer: Use meta-learning to distill Bayesian priors into a neural network! nature.com/articles/s4146… 1/n

🚨New Preprint!! Thrilled to share with you our latest work: “Mixture of Cognitive Reasoners”, a modular transformer architecture inspired by the brain’s functional networks: language, logic, social reasoning, and world knowledge. 1/ 🧵👇
