#Syria's SW province of #Suwayda has seen 5 days of chaotic, complex conflict now -- but as with previous bouts of hostilities in recent months, the information space has been plagued by disinformation, conflicting information & fast-changing developments. What's happened, a 🧵:
We tested every major AI reasoning system. There is no clear winner. Accuracy goes up as you stack modern CoT techniques, but efficiency goes way down. This gives rise to a Pareto frontier on accuracy vs. cost using ARC-AGI as a consistent measuring stick.
MAGA is making the claim that if you watch the entire 50 minute video, Zelensky is the antagonist. This isn't true. At all. I was with Zelensky before this meeting and it's important to know his mindset heading in. 1/ A short 🧵on how the entire ambush went down.

Learning orthogonalizes visual cortical population codes biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Fascinated by learning, vision, and/or neural population codes? See our new paper, which shows that training on a 2AFC visual task sparsens and orthogonalizes the representations of task-informative stimuli in V1. w/ @MatteoCarandini and @kennethd_harris biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
1. How does learning affect population codes in visual cortex? We asked this in a new study with @sfailor and @MatteoCarandini. Looking at single cells, the results are perplexing. Looking at populations, they make sense. Now on bioRxiv: doi.org/10.1101/2021.0…
Postdoc job alert: we are looking for those fascinated by neuronal signals, precise behavior and models that bridge the gap between these. We promise stimulating science, fun and diversity. Also, Oxford's best view and free coffee! Apply here: my.corehr.com/pls/uoxrecruit…
Combining visual and auditory information helps localize objects in our environment – whether you are predator, prey, or pedestrian crossing the street. What role does the cortex play in this? (@timothy_sit Miles Wells @MatteoCarandini @kennethd_harris) biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Neuroscience, theoretical computer science & pure mathematics are the cornerstones of my academic path. @uniofleicester wants to get rid of all of them as part of "shaping for excellence" plan. Please sign tinyurl.com/SaveNPB-UOL to support us in opposing the cuts to neuroscience
I am very excited to share my work from the last few years @KamounLab >> cyst nematodes and potato blight pathogen independently evolved to suppress the same critical nodes of an NLR immune receptor network. (1/15) #NLRs #Effectors #plantpath biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
1. In neuroscience we often analyze variables that change slowly over time, for which standard statistical methods can give bogus results. I explored ten methods to deal with this problem and wrote up the results in a preprint. biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
