Every machine in a Hospital that diagnoses your body without cutting you open is based on a principle of Physics, discovered by a Physicist who had no interest in Medicine.
If you think the world doesn’t need Basic Science, or that somehow Science has failed you, think again.

Grateful to The Verge for publishing my essay on why large-language models are not going to achieve general intelligence nor push the scientific frontier.

Is language the same as intelligence? The AI industry desperately needs it to be
The AI boom is based on a fundamental mistake.

Sequence preparation is not always associated with a reaction time cost
The extent to which a sequence of movements is prepared before initiating the first movement is a longstanding question in motor neuroscience. The observation that reaction time (RT) increases for lon...

Size matters: how small is your #fovea? www.shadertoy.com/view/4dsXzM fovea detector; look at the small area with rotating crosses in your central vision (best used in full-screen mode); this is the area typically stimulated by retinal implants and brain implants for restoring vision.

I can't get over this one. Spending $1b on bringing 'top talent' to Canada... Canada has excellent researchers already, and they need more funding not more colleagues
It’s hard not to feel insulted by the Canadian federal budget’s implication that researchers currently working in Canada aren’t good enough, so they’ll spend a bunch of taxpayer money to bring in “top talent” from elsewhere.
