@willjharrison @OpenAI Not this one, no, but after a great suggestion by @__init_self, we tried to push it to its limits with something more creative. I am blown away to say the least.

1\ I'm excited that I'll be presenting new work on “Dimensions of Consciousness” for a symposium at #ASSC26 in NYC. The symposium topic is “Mathematical Spaces for Conscious Experiences,” co-organized by @JohannesKleiner and me. I'm looking forward to returning to NYU!

How does our brain come up with new ideas and insights? We propose that insights are unexpected rewards or shortcuts found during mental navigation and correspond to the rapid emergence of new concept fields in the hippocampus.

Thanks to the @ERC_Research starting grant funding #ERCStG, we are hiring two postdoctoral fellows to work on the neural circuit mechanisms of flexible decision-making under risk and social influence. Please RT!

How can we manipulate our worlds to improve our minds?
If you listen to this week’s episode of “All in the Mind” on @BBCRadio4, you can catch the inimitable @samgilbert1 talking about his work on “cognitive offloading” and metacognitive control.

(1/9) Momentous news today: a clinical trial shows that #Alzheimers drug #lecanemab reduces amyloid in the brain & slows cognitive decline in patients. This breakthrough has been hailed as "the beginning of the end" for Alzheimer’s treatments by Prof John Hardy @UCLIoN @UKDRI 🧵

My take on Lecanemab — how we got here, what we know, what it might mean for the NHS, and why more research in dementia is needed @AlzResearchUK @guardian @UKDRI @uclnews https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/nov/30/alzheimers-drug-lecanemab-trials-nhs

This is so exciting & an incredible day for Alzheimer’s research. It’s far from perfect - modest effects and risks - so lots to do and research still needed - but after so many failures and controversies it’s nice to feel the buzz of optimism again! https://twitter.com/bbcworld/status/1597839164300578817

1/10) Can we find a label-free model selection algorithm in Self-supervised learning (#SSL) for #vision?
Our #NeurIPS2022 paper, α-ReQ, presents just such an #algorithm based on the structure of #representations in the #neocortex!
This is work w/ Kumar Agrawal (#Berkeley), Arnab Kumar Mondal and Arna Ghosh (#McGill/#Mila). 🧵
