Excited to share our work now published in Nature Communications - shared functional specialization in tansformer language models and the human brain! With co-first author @tedsumers, senior author @samnastase and others (@hawkrobe, @TakaYamakoshi). [1/n] nature.com/articles/s4146…
Happy to see the final version of this project with @marcelomattar & @GJEHennequin out – and very grateful to the four reviewers for their inputs and expertise!

A theory of how the brain could implement planning through prefrontal–hippocampal interactions, where hippocampal replays are triggered by—and adaptively affect—prefrontal dynamics. nature.com/articles/s4159…
1/7 If you're curious about in-context learning and human cognition, you're going to like our recent preprint! In this work, we show that the mechanisms of induction heads in LLMs are remarkably similar to those of human episodic memory. arxiv.org/abs/2405.14992
My first first-author paper with @DobyRahnev is out! In this paper, we discussed what confidence response times (cRTs) can tell us about underlying confidence computations. Link to full text⬇️ jov.arvojournals.org/article.aspx?a…
