Inharmonicity enhances brain signals of attentional capture and auditory stream segregation
Harmonicity is an important feature for auditory perception as it influences pitch processing, memory and hearing in noisy environments. However, the neural substrates of processing harmonic and inhar...

What happens in the brain when we manipulate our thoughts?
We asked 30 epilepsy patients to mentally invert short melodies.
Intracerebral #iEEG recordings suggest brain synchrony and sensory inhibition are key for mental manipulation:

Brain Dynamics of Mental Manipulation
Humans effortlessly juggle their internal thoughts, but the neuronal dynamics that support mental manipulation are largely unknown. Leveraging the high spatiotemporal fidelity of intracranial recordin...

If you have zero education, but learn how to ask AI models the right questions , in many jobs you will be able to outperform someone with an advanced degree, but who is unwilling to use Large Language Models.
Just takes a smartphone, curiosity to experiment and a mindset to learn.

Always remember: reducing your personal carbon footprint is the morally correct thing to do, but it is also irrelevant compared to all the environmental damage done by big corporations (who highly prefer you to feel guilty about your actions than to be held accountable for theirs).

I have a theory that if you think your grant is absolutely amazing and flawless then you are in a bubble and probably not writing well for a wider audience.
The best place to be is somewhat confident, but also aware that there are possible holes in your proposal that you can't easily address.

The frustrating thing about any legal action against Musk is that he's got something like $425 billion. He could lose a court case for billions of dollars and it would still be nothing to him. The dude loves lawsuits because they're nothing to him.
This guy knows f**k all about UK libel and defamation law.
The Guardian should launch legal action against Elon Musk now.
Many of us would gladly contribute to their legal fighting fund.
