New semantic network paper in @plosone.org with @ruimata.bsky.social at @unibas.ch and @dirkwulff.bsky.social at @arc-mpib.bsky.social!
We ran large-scale simulations to test how well common behavioral tasks measure a person's semantic network.

Measuring individual semantic networks: A simulation study
Accurately capturing individual differences in semantic networks is fundamental to advancing our mechanistic understanding of semantic memory. Past empirical attempts to construct individual-level sem...

Preprint: Individual-level semantic networks are a critical ingredient for building realistic cognitive models. In our simulation, @ruimata.bsky.social, @dirkwulff.bsky.social, and I show when measurements of individual semantic networks are accurate and when they are not.

There's been lots of speculation about potential societal impacts of LLMs 🌍
In a new Nature Human Behaviour (@natureportfolio.bsky.social) article, I and 27 researchers argue that we should be thinking about those impacts through the lens of collective intelligence
