We’re moving our communication away from X! After 15 years, it’s time to continue the conversation somewhere new. This account will stay online as an archive – a little time capsule of science stories, discoveries… and to be honest, probably far too many posts about coffee! 😉

🥳I am incredibly humbled and grateful to share that our work, "Aligning machine and human visual representations across abstraction levels," has been published today in @Nature: nature.com/articles/s41586-0… For more information see @AndrewLampinen’s post below ⬇️
What aspects of human knowledge do vision models like CLIP fail to capture, and how can we improve them? We suggest models miss key global organization; aligning them makes them more robust. Check out @lukas_mut's work, finally out (in @Nature!?) our new blogpost! 1/4
