AI neurons run on simple math. Real neurons are far weirder. A new open dataset fitted 1,000+ PyTorch-ready neuron models to real mouse and human cells. Does brain-like diversity make AI better? It's still an open question, but now it's testable. https://bit.ly/3WfGAwR

From this, we hypothesize that predictive GCs could be acting as a "repulsive force" on the GC pop. This might be useful bc, if you are at position (x, y) at time t and moving with some reasonable forward velocity, then at time t + n (where n is not too small/large) you will be away from (x,y) 3/

Check out this new amazing paper from the Yartsev lab in which they analyze neuronal population dynamics of the 🦇 motor cortex during flight! They identify that the dynamics are high-dimensional, in contrast to experiments performed in restrained conditions. Have a look! www.cell.com/cell/fulltex...
