This is really cool. Check it out.
An interesting paper on humanity, in the midst of a giant wave of AI. https://twitter.com/nadine_dijkstra/status/1640461831343939585

I am SO excited to share that our paper 'Sensory strength distinguishes imagination from reality' is now published! It was a long process but I'm so happy with the result. With @smfleming.

When do confidence computations take place? In a new preprint, we find that single TMS pulses to DLPFC as early as 200 ms after stimulus onset affect confidence, challenging post-decisional theories of confidence. Work led by @Kai_Xue1201. 1/5 https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.03.21.533662v1

Could you land a plane if the pilot died?
A lot of men are convinced they could. I would have been among them if I hadn’t read this study and real pilots pointing out how entertaining the possibility is totally ridiculous. https://twitter.com/yougovamerica/status/1610021865753280512

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.

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
