I'm teaching Statistical Rethinking again starting Jan 2026. This time with live lectures, divided into Beginner and Experienced sections. Will be a lot more work for me, but I hope much better for students.
I will record lectures & all will be found at this link: github.com/rmcelreath/s...

In this new paper, we look at some different dimensions on which beliefs vary:
- Is the belief deeply important to your identity?
- Would you change your mind if you got evidence against it?
- Is it best described in terms of credences (“pretty sure”), or is it more yes/no?

Maybe there are two distinct kinds of belief: they either represent facts (It's rainy) or express identity (My son is the best). We find instead that many beliefs simultaneously represent facts and express identity (but few beliefs do neither).

New paper 🚨
Are LLMs just “calculators for writing”?
In this new paper led by Cristina Voinea, we argue that while there are some aspects of the analogy that can be defended, ultimately it is inadequate.
