Our ICLR poster is Saturday Morning (Hall 3 + Hall 2B #63)! We (myself with Cory Efird, Alex Murphy and Joel Zylberberg) are excited to share our work searching for Shared Decodable Concepts in the human brain. We used the Natural Scenes Dataset to find the concepts that most drive brain activity…

👏
If you review for a #ML conference like @iclr-conf.bsky.social or @neuripsconf.bsky.social, YOU HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO REPLY TO THE AUTHORS.

If the rebuttal doesn't address your concerns explain why. But giving a score of 2-3 then ghosting the authors is super rude.

I say this as an AC.

Very happy to see this out there. It was nice to be invited to this very open and collaborative system to contribute ideas, comments and revisions to the final version. Check it out! -- NeuroAI for AI Safety.
Excited to release what we’ve been working on at Amaranth Foundation, our latest whitepaper, NeuroAI for AI safety! A detailed, ambitious roadmap for how neuroscience research can help build safer AI systems while accelerating both virtual neuroscience and neurotech. 1/N

🧠🤖 Do you have an ML background and want to learn a bit about #neuroscience? Check out our free online course!

We think neuro and ML both aim to understand intelligence, and so it's good to know a bit of both to inspire new ideas that neither field might find on their own.
