In my recent work with @cocoscilab, I’ve been exploring how metalearning acts as an algorithmic tool for understanding the emergence of relational reasoning and rapid few-shot learning in neural networks, with the goal of explaining how it may be that people learn to learn…
Mech interp is great for people who were good at calc, interested in the brain, but too squeamish to become neurosurgeons? Sign me up.
Jung: "Never do human beings speculate more, or have more opinions, than about things which they do not understand" This rings of truth for me today - I'm grateful to be a part of institutions that prefer the scientific method to wanton speculation
Love this take on RL in day-to-day life (mimesis is such a silent killer):

ICML is everyone's chance to revisit the days we peaked in HS multi-variable calc
I am starting to think sycophancy is going to be a bigger problem than pure hallucination as LLMs improve. Models that won’t tell you directly when you are wrong (and justify your correctness) are ultimately more dangerous to decision-making than models that are sometimes wrong.

🤖🧠Paper out in Nature Communications! 🧠🤖 Bayesian models can learn rapidly. Neural networks can handle messy, naturalistic data. How can we combine these strengths? Our answer: Use meta-learning to distill Bayesian priors into a neural network! nature.com/articles/s4146… 1/n
can ideas from hard negative mining from contrastive learning play into generating valid counterfactual reasoning paths? or am I way off base? curious to hear what people think
