A good while back I co-created an autonomous neurotic orchestrion called @cybraphon with @SimonKirby and @SurfacePressure It googles itself every 15 seconds, has social media accounts and wins BAFTAs. Here's Simon's @TEDTalks youtube.com/watch?v=uw5zX0…
Super excited to be heading down to Melbourne to give this talk! (Fun fact: it was while we were visiting Melbourne together 24 years ago that Morten Christiansen and I hatched an idea to edit a book together called "Language Evolution".)

Thrilled to share a review on THE LANGUAGE NETWORK AS A NATURAL KIND—a culmination of ~20 yrs of thinking about+studying language from linguistic, psycholinguistic, and cog neuro perspectives. @NatRevNeurosci rdcu.be/dEylV With the amazing @neuranna @tamaregev 🥳 🧵1/n

How do learners figure out what a word is in their language? In this paper with @drculbertson & I, @ecpankratz looks at internal immutability and free mobility as cues and finds that both conspire to make word discovery possible. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/IA5WGGNN…
Excited to have my first journal paper (w/ @SimonKirby & @drculbertson) out today in Cognitive Science! In an experiment + computational model, we test the role of working memory in regularisation of linguistic variation. Read all about it: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…
Well, this is just utterly extraordinary. youtu.be/uTQKCt-1T6k?si…
Happy to see this paper with @drculbertson and @mandolinguist out! Aislinn manipulates working memory during learning or production (and runs some cool urn model simulations) to uncover the processes that lead to regularisation of linguistic variation. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/XUTCWAFR…

Absolutely! There is still hope for building a positive AI future! But at least three things have to change: • We need a better, more reliable, more trustworthy technical approach (which will probably require a paradigm shift) - The big AI companies have to stop ripping off…

@SimonKirby @inbalarnon I find it highly amusing that you used a "Simon game" for the experiments. A living metonymy 😀
Very excited about new paper with wonderful @SimonKirby (even broke my twitter hiatus....). We use statistical learning methods to show that core statistical properties of language -having parts that follow a Zipfian distribution- can emerge through cultural transmission.
"We show that parts emerge from initially unsegmented sequences, that their distribution becomes closer to a power law over generations, and, importantly, that these properties make the sets of sequences more learnable." Amazing stuff!
New paper with @inbalarnon! Using methods from statistical learning we show how two key properties of language - statistically coherent recombinable units, and Zipfian distributions - arise from cultural evolution experiments with non-linguistic sequences. rdcu.be/dAgBz
Wild... Did not expect this!
