What is this ‘attention economy’? Is there really a market where people buy and sell human attention? If so, what’s wrong with that? New paper by Katharine Browne and me that argues: yes, there is an attention market and yes, there is something wrong with it. 🧵

The attention market—and what is wrong with it - Philosophical Studies

I wonder how much disagreement comes from some folks interpreting “X does Y” as “X only does Y and Y is only done by X”, while others interpret it as “X is an important part of the Y process”?
I suspect some, but not all.

🧠 New preprint: Why do deep neural networks predict brain responses so well?
We find a striking dissociation: it’s not shared object recognition. Alignment is driven by sensitivity to texture-like local statistics.

New book— just got my copy! I know people often don’t read book chapters but I think that’s a mistake. They are usually much more reflective and wide ranging than journal articles.
