We were grateful to welcome Stanford Professor Jennifer Eberhardt for a thought-provoking presentation on racial bias.

The seminar—co-hosted with @pennchibe.bsky.social, the Quattrone Center, @appc.upenn.edu, & @pennmindcore.bsky.social—drew a large crowd from the Penn community.

Examining how people’s brains respond to persuasive messages in ads or articles can help reveal what makes those messages stick.

“Decision-making is driven by brain activity in predictable brain systems,” says Warren Center affiliate Emily Falk. penntoday.upenn.edu/...

Professors: Running a class with research projects? You and your TAs will never have enough time to carefully guide every student through gap, hypotheses, experiment, data analysis, etc. I think every larger course running research projects should use this.
I think almost all scientific projects should be planned carefully. And I think an app can dramatically improve that. So I wrote an app for that (free for now, if you can fund this let me know). I tested it quite a bit (>8000 users in beta so far). try it: planyourscience.com

Let's compare our world models. I find that different people seem to have rather distinct internal world models. E.g. I personally have neither visual imagination nor an inner voice, found it weird others do. Here is a quick google forms to check idea:

Despite decades of research, we still don't know how the brain integrates the features of an object into a coherent whole or whether artificial systems perform similar binding. Tomorrow, @KordingLab will give a seminar on "How Brains and Machines Solve the Binding Problem." ai.upenn.edu/penn-ai...

In Konrad Kording and Ioana Marinescu's new Brookings Institution paper, they consider how to model an economy with rapidly increasing intelligence capital but slowly increasing physical capital in order to generate meaningful predictions of AI’s wage and output impacts.
