WTF: Mind reading is here.

Researchers invented a new #AI method to convert brain signals into video. See the results for yourself

Published in Nature yesterday: nature.com/articles/s4158…

What are the implications? Is this the biggest paper of 2023?

#CEBRA
Check out the homepage of CEBRA here: cebra.ai
And the abstract: Image
Mapping behavioural actions to neural activity is a fundamental goal of neuroscience. As our ability to record large neural and behavioural data increases, there is growing interest in modeling neural dynamics during adaptive behaviors to probe neural representations.

Did you watch the predicted video?

Also, I wonder if results change if it’s not black and white. Must add a lot of color possibilities

🧵I had the opportunity to stay in South Africa over the summer.

They have a custom called"stokvel", which is
a friend-based credit union. It's genius + super interesting.

About half of South Africans take part and $2.5B USD is put in each year.

You form a group of 12 with friends. Each month, you pitch in a set amount, such as $100. One out of 12 months, it's your turn to receive that month's money ($1200). The rest of the months, you put $100 in and one of your friends gets the money.

Why is this good?
It encourages people to save and be accountable. If they can't put up the $100, they can be cast out and will also look bad to their friends.

🧵Racial minorities are 40% of the US population but only 5% of jurors.

For @Stanford CS109, I built an interactive site that explores the probabilities of jury selection and race.

@Stanford 1/n

In the #AhmaudArbery trial, only 1 in 12 jurors was Black, even though the local population is 27% Black.

The defendants struck out 11/12 jurors.

In another case, a jury pool of 105 people in Stockton, CA had 0 Black people.

The website teaches probability in the context… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
You'll learn about Bayes Theorem, Hypergeometric and Binomial Theorems, Maximum Likelihood Estimation, and the Chi-Squared test.

It's fully interactive with Python code showing how things are calculated.

for some reason, on desktop Twitter, it's always "load 34 tweets". Never 24 or 63. Just 34. twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

You can't do everything and be everything.

Someone who spends 100% effort on A will beat you who does 50% A, 50% B.

Jack of all trades is master of none.

Yes, synergy is a thing, many Nobel Prize winners have hobbies and are great musicians and artists. Not what I'm talking about here.

I notice something I call "choice aversion".

People often ask questions like "i love X but i also love Y, what should i do"

The common answer in today's culture is "you can do all of it! no need to choose! branch out!"

we're afraid to admit some fundamental truths:

all my friends who read a lot when young are successful now

i think reading is probably the more important thing you can do in elementary school

if ur brain is like an LLM, you should maximize the # of tokens it sees while training
i read so much in elementary school that writing is very easy for me. i liken it to next token prediction.

SAT/ACT grammar came very easy for me, i just went off of what sounded right. idioms as well, even though my family isn't native english speaker. but id read all them
