I love this! It reminds me why coding in #Python can be so much fun!

"ChatGPT Is a Blurry JPEG of the Web" by Ted Chiang. This is easily the best piece I've read about large language models.

Has a bunch of great new metaphors to seek your teeth into.

Apologies for a link to the bird site, but here is a long thread on the topics covered in my course "Machine Learning for Cognitive Computational Neuroscience". I included most papers covered and thought this resource may be of interest to some of you: https://twitter.com/TimKietzmann/status/1623657691976458242

“Just finished my course “Machine Learning for Cognitive Computational Neuroscience”. Across 12 lectures (90 minutes each) and 10 workgroup sessions, we covered >100 papers (46% published in the past two years). The students (and I) learned a lot. Here is what we covered: 1/”

“In this preprint https://t.co/1dUtWFbIVs, we describe a relative increase in gray matter volume (GMV) after acute psychosocial #stress compared to the control group, in which several clusters showed a - daytime-related? - GMV decrease. A summary 🧵:”

@Neuro_Skeptic doesn't seem to be here, yet, but the study that was in his Twitter spotlight (https://mobile.twitter.com/Neuro_Skeptic/status/1467462969340702721) is now out in Neuroimage (@NeuroImage_EiC also isn't here, yet)

“This preprint says that social stress can cause brain volume changes within 90 minutes https://t.co/tY7744WuxR n=30 stress / 33 control. The stress group showed *increased* regional grey matter volume. It's hard to know what to make of that.”

Hi, I'm a researcher, investigating the #physiology of the #mind - in particular of #emotions - in the #brain & the rest of the #body - particularly the #heart.

Besides classical #neuroimaging & #psychophysiological methods, we use #immersive #virtualreality for naturalistic neuroscience experiments.

My group (the #Mind-Body-Emotion Group) is based at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive & Brain Sciences in Berlin & Leipzig, Germany.
