@rhodricusack.bsky.social1/ How do we sustain mental continuity in the face of interruption? @xianl-explorer.bsky.social found that, while people listen to a story, posterior medial cortex expresses a slowly evolving "background" representation of the story's context, which survived through silence and interfering tasks.
Show PostNew preprint www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...: brain alignment in DNNs is almost fully complete at 3% of training. Features involved in classification are largely independent of those that predict the brain. With @niklasmuller.bsky.social , @irisgroen.bsky.social. @marcelvangerven.bsky.social
Show PostAnd just imagine these dynamics when you also have fundamental indeterminacy (and finite information) at play at the lowest levels. It implies that for many kinds of systems, their future evolution is genuinely open...

Show PostI'm proud to say we are releasing LAION-fMRI, a densely sampled 7T fMRI dataset of natural images, with very broad stimulus sampling for testing countless hypotheses and for deeply exploring brain representations. The dataset is now available at laion-fmri.hebartlab.com What does LAION-fMRI offer? 🧵
