Here are the big takeaways from the @IPCC_CH Synthesis Report released today.
First, climate change has already caused widespread and substantial losses to almost every aspect of human life on this planet, and the impacts on future generations depend on the choices we make NOW.

Friday's Brain Meeting will be given by @EikoFried
'Studying mental health problems as systems, not syndromes' will discuss systems perspective to mental health problems, and showcase new theories and methods to facilitate prevention and intervention.

Very interesting and readable paper summarising current situation w.r.t. LLMs and linguistics... https://twitter.com/spiantado/status/1635276145041235969

Reminder, deadline this Wednesday for the open postdoc position in my lab examining the neural and computational mechanisms of motivation and decision-making: https://edzz.fa.em3.oraclecloud.com/hcmUI/CandidateExperience/en/sites/CX_6001/job/537/?utm_medium=jobshare

In my opinion by far the best image reconstruction from brain activity patterns out there. Not only good semantic reconstruction as in many of the current approaches but also nice fidelity of object position and scene layout. https://twitter.com/ozcefurkan/status/1636842400776699904

Just published in @eLife! This work was done with the amazing @neuro_kim @caswellcaswell & supremely talented co-first author @TomNotGeorge! TLDR? There's evidence hippocampus functions like a 'predictive map' - so how might this be achieved in the brain? https://elifesciences.org/articles/80663

Huge thanks to #CRTA #Robotics Centre at @SveucilisteZG for hosting #UK Director for #Technology Chris Jones. Really impressive robots helping humans doing everything from #neurosurgery to persuading kids to exercise. Unfortunately I could take a robot home :(

The talks were all amazing, so we're very happy to be able to share them like this. 🙂

Awesome episode! Wonderful to hear @drkjjeffery talk about her work and the descriptions of how Grid and Place cells map a 2D and 3D space. Loved the part about how it would be fascinating to study how a 4D space would be cognitively mapped! https://twitter.com/caswellcaswell/status/1636069067692953602

Reducing doctoral training opportunities and reducing their distribution across the UK is perhaps not the best way to create a science superpower. Reductions cited go beyond that required to fund stipends adequately (where @UKRI_News have been making good progress) https://twitter.com/davidpriceucl/status/1635918464211726336

Excellent work by @SebastianHell18, now published in #PsyRev: https://doi.org/10.1037/rev0000411. The best model assumes a drift diffusion process for the decision and for confidence, a parallel estimate of sensory uncertainty, and a post-decisional period of evidence accumulation. https://twitter.com/SebastianHell18/status/1509430243110576131

our long planned conference on the philosophy of deep learning is coming March 24-26 at NYU, starting with a debate on meaning/understanding in language models, followed by a weekend of talks, posters, and panels. there will be a livestream in case you can't make it in person. https://twitter.com/raphaelmilliere/status/1635662434999455749
