Here is our best thinking about how to make world models. I would apologize for it being a massive 40-page behemoth, but it's worth reading. arxiv.org/pdf/2509.09737

Lots of people are pinging me re PhD applications lately, here is what I tell them. I accept PhD students
through: (1) CS (tinyurl.com/4azymrbu Comp Cog Neuro track), (2) Psychology tinyurl.com/4v7793tz and (3) Neuro tinyurl.com/ycx658h9. Good luck!

It was a steep climb in the "early days" (~2012) up the ImageNet gradient towards better visual system models. That tapped out ~2015 after resnet ...

But now w/ video models starting to perform, we can push forward again. Task-driven brain models ftw. amazing...

🚀 New Open-Source Release! PyTorchTNN 🚀
A PyTorch library for biologically-inspired temporal neural nets: unrolling computation through time. Integrates with our recent Encoder-Attender-Decoder, which flexibly combines models (Transformer, SSM, RNN) since no single one fits all sequence tasks.
