1/4 🧵 Le prof.sse Stefania Pighin, Katya Tentori e Lucia Savadori esplorano il linguaggio dell’incertezza: come percentuali e probabilità orientano le decisioni e il rapporto medico-paziente.

Nella terza puntata del podcast “Parliamone bene” del progetto B-Hu-Well.

🧵1/2 Belluzzi & Fairhall @cimecunitrento.bsky.social, show that context-specific predictions of semantic content rely on a left-dominant fronto-temporo-parietal network, the Active Prediction Network, partially overlapping with the semantic control system.

1/2🧵 Ranking-based analysis: left-handers are overrepresented across tiers, and especially at the top, in fencing & table tennis.

While the classic "rare style" advantage helps explain this, other factors may also be at play.

@annabavaresco.bsky.social and
@tlmnhut.bsky.social show: supervised pruning of a DNN’s feature space better aligns with human category representations, selects distinct subspaces for different categories, and more accurately predicts people’s preferences for GenAI images.
