I am incredibly proud of this paper. Niia and the @visceral_mind worked incredibly hard to bring you this step-change in our understanding of respiratory interoception! I hope the community enjoys it!

"A majority of US participants were willing to attribute some possibility of phenomenal consciousness to large language models." pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38618488/ maybe they have consciousness at the level of an ant, carrying words around like bits of leaf
Remember DIANA fMRI - direct imaging of neuronal activity? The method is in trouble, with failures to replicate nature.com/articles/d4158…

Embattled Harvard honesty professor Francesca Gino accused of plagiarism science.org/content/articl… This is all a simple misunderstanding. She thought she was professor of dishonesty!
Ahem
Who would you say is the most under-rated historical neuroscientist or psychologist? (Historical = not alive)
@Neuro_Skeptic I have a playlist for songs with neuropsichiatric themes. Lots of neurotransmitters too if you are interested open.spotify.com/playlist/22Mga…
"A distinguishing feature of the brain is the shallowness of its architecture" - what if the brain is not deep after all? nature.com/articles/s4158… The neural puddle model.
Here's a partial compliation of all the music albums that have been titled "Dopamine". Dopamine is the celebrity of neurotransmitters, but don't forget GABA and glutamate are doing most of the real work.
Is anyone familar with Stephen Grossberg's "Adaptive Resonance Theory" of mind and consciousness? link.springer.com/article/10.375… It reminds me of Friston's model somewhat, but with key differences e.g. no prediction errors
This is fascinating - by looking at its internal activations, you can measure whether a language model "believes" a certain statement is true arxiv.org/abs/2304.13734 Until they're smart enough to read papers like this and modify their own activations to fool us
@Neuro_Skeptic @mendel_random Preprint here by @zoereed23 and others, exploring the problem of using genetic variants "for" a behavioural exposure in MR analyses... medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
"Findings demonstrate a significant causal link between skipping breakfast and an increased risk of ADHD" pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38566068/ Has Mendelian Randomization gone too far? Is this a valid application of the method @MarcusMunafo 🤔
The rise of "popcorn brain" forbes.com/sites/traversm… I don't relate to this - I'd be more likely to spend all day worrying about the cat.
I'd like to reassure everyone that I did not pay for a blue tick, it was assigned to me automatically. Is there any way to disable it?
The interview extracts in this paper give some vivid insights into how the academic sausage is made.
The interview extracts in this paper give some vivid insights into how the academic sausage is made.
Questionable Research Practices as "Academic Survival Strategies" link.springer.com/article/10.100… I've always said this. P-hacking doesn't just happen; it is a selfish but rational response to incentives
@KordingLab @Neuro_Skeptic We tried to summarize and reflect on some related aspects in our latest article in the Annual Reviews of Vision Science (in press). Also soon to come is a study assessing exactly your question w.r.t to scene context processing in primates (stay tuned 😊) arxiv.org/abs/2312.05956

@Neuro_Skeptic One thing LLMs lack is the internal persistent state necessary to experience changes, so I don’t think they’re conscious because they’re feedforward reflex arcs, but we’re not far from having a head scratcher of a time proving/disproving AI qualia exist or not
