Our response to commentators for our LoT BBS paper is finally done! philpapers.org/rec/QUITLO-4. We are super lucky and appreciative to have had such insightful, thoughtful commentators. Before highlighting a few of the commentaries I want to clarify: we didn't pick who was accepted!

My friends' game came out today and it looks amazing.
@bfod is an artist and philosopher, just one that happens to be using video games as his medium at the moment. See, e.g., nytimes.com/2025/09/23/arts/…

Baby Steps, the game I've been working on for 6 years with @gabecuzzillo and @maxiboch, is out on PC and PS5! We've put a feature-length film's worth of stupid cutscenes in this thing, and I hope you like them. But if not, you can skip them.... OR CAN YOU????
RTs appreciated 🙏

I can't stop reading the Grok reply page. It's going schizo and can't stop talking about white genocide in South Africa.

Seen many soup kitchen lunches but nothing ever like this. It’s going to be the most glorious lunch today for 450 food insecure New Yorkers.

Hard to pick a favorite Eric Adams clip, but this is hard to beat

Will always remember how Eric Adams’ pitch for why the New York City is so great is that any day you wake up, 9/11 could happen

Extremely excited to share that I will be joining @Cornell as an Assistant Professor of Psychology in Fall 2025!
I’m just so thrilled to be joining such a lively department, and the thriving moral psych/philosophy community there.

Nobody knows anything yet. Don't share anything from someone who says they do. Log off. You'll find out when there's something to find out.

I wrote a review of @De_dicto's seminal book on the perception/cognition border for Mind. Tl;dr: you should read the book. But also consider reading the review. Hard to imagine I'll ever have a harder or more meaningful review to write philpapers.org/rec/MANTBB

Of course it contains criticisms/counterarguments. But I also get a chance to reflect on some broader questions like where the field of perception is going, what it takes to do top flight work in it, and why in god's name anyone bothers to write a book in cognitive science at all

How gullible are people? If you’ve been following Twitter recently (or um…The New Yorker?) you might have seen that lots of people think: not so much!
In a forthcoming paper (philarchive.org/rec/PORBDC), @Ericmandelbaum and I argue for the opposite view:

A phone in a basket looks very different from a knife in a cup. Would you ever confuse them? In a new paper @ Open Mind, @chazfirestone @michaelfbonner Barbara Landau and I show that you would — with implications for the relation between language & vision. osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/jx…

We are especially lucky that someone like Tobi--who’s research is so influential—is also just a deeply kind, warm, and fun member of our community. I hope you will all join me in celebrating Tobi and all of the other excellent work in cognitive science at this year’s SPP!

The SPP is lucky to be filled with such interesting researchers. I saw all the nominations and all were deserving of this honor--it was a really stellar field. People are doing inspiring work! It makes the celebration of Tobi all that more impressive
