"Decoding EEG for optimizing naturalistic memory" out now in Journal of Neuroscience Methods!! @ELSneuroscience
TLDR; we trained neural decoders to predict memory success, then applied them to present items when people were predicted to learn well

I've plotted the most expensive McDonald's burger and the least expensive MacBook over time. This analysis projects that the most expensive burger will be more expensive than the cheapest laptop as soon as 2081

amazingly apt description of AI use for technical problems

I have similar experiences. You point the thing around and it shoots pellets or sometimes even misfires and then once in a while when you hold it just right a powerful beam of laser erupts and melts your problem.

I think you can get a surprisingly solid intuition for the current state of AI by following @karpathy, Yann Lecun, and @dwarkesh_sp podcast. Super high SNR relative to most stuff on twitter / LinkedIn, which are dominated by grifters and people hyping specific labs.

Of course I follow lots of academic thought leaders and read technical papers too, which help a ton and give me context for understanding and filtering the above. I wonder A) if the above are understandable without said context and B) if so, how sufficient they are

Easy to forget how much hidden prompt engineering is wrapped up in frontier LLM's... until your requests create a conflict 😅

Excited to share our NeurIPS 2025 Spotlight paper “Does Object Binding Naturally Emerge in Large Pretrained Vision Transformers?” ✨
To add to the broader discussion of binding in neural networks, we ask whether and how Vision Transformers perform object binding (the ability to bind an object’s many features together as a coherent whole).💡

I think almost all scientific projects should be planned carefully. And I think an app can dramatically improve that. So I wrote an app for that (free for now, if you can fund this let me know). I tested it quite a bit (>8000 users in beta so far).
ALT 8000 users so far. Worldwide

Frontier models are still so weird in how sycophantic and overly-validating they are...
Gemini 3 seems quite good from my usage so far, but it just began a response a technical question with "You are asking exactly the right questions for a PhD student"
...thanks...?

This is the single most massive factual error in a major book I've ever personally noticed on my own, and I think I'm the first person to notice it? Empire of AI asserts that a data center is using 1000x as much water as a city. In reality, it's 22% of the city's water.

✨ It’s hard to write an abstract. It’s harder to write a glamorous one that tells your story without overselling your results.
🛠️ Join us on Tuesday, December 2 @ 12 pm ET for a live abstract-writing workshop led by our P.I., Konrad Kording @koerding

With the government shutdown threatening SNAP and other benefits, reminder to academics to check if your university will match donations to food pantries and the like! e.g. @Penn is currently doubling donations to local charities through: pennsway.upenn.edu

In Philly, Philabundance is known for doing awesome work to fight food insecurity. philabundance.org
If you have a PennKey you can double your donation by donating through the Penn's Way platform.

Thrilled to spend the next 4 months visiting @nadavcohen and the Foundations of Deep Learning group at Tel Aviv University.
Extra grateful to witness today’s joyful return of the Israeli hostages captured on 10/7 and what is hopefully the start of enduring peace

dad asked how i was, told him my training run was crash looping, he said "have you tried turning it on and off again," i laughed and said haha dad i'm a serious engineer i don't do that, i hung up, did that, and it fixed the problem

Just spent two wonderful weeks in London for the Analytical Connectionism Summer School (hosted at @GatsbyUCL this year). Met lots of wonderful scientists at the intersection of cog neuro and machine learning. Learned a lot and can’t recommend more highly! Small meetings rule

Do you find the way statistics relates to scientific questions confusing and arbitrary? Do you like drawing owls? Then my free lectures are here for you
4 Jun 2025
For the new kids in back: If you hate statistics, you'll love my free lectures. Putting science before statistics, from basics of inference & causal modeling to multilevel models & dynamic state space models. It's all free, made with love and sympathy. youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…
