Very proud to see this paper in @eLife! Great PhD work by @ViktorKewenig. Perhaps the first study (!?) that looks at word processing across situated and displaced contexts in naturalistic language. @ECOLOGICALBRAIN @LeverhulmeTrust

[Ecological Brain @ECOLOGICALBRAIN]

Amazing work by our PhD students and supervisors!!!

[UCL Brain Sciences @UCLBrainScience]

Last week, neuroscientists at @UCLPALS and architects joined forces to study how people navigate built environments...by creating life-size simulations of the real world in an enormous laboratory!

@mircomusolesi Congratulations Olivia:two papers in a day! @LeverhulmeTrust

[Mirco Musolesi @mircomusolesi]

Our paper on a game-theoretic agent-based approach to conflict modelling is now out in PLOS ONE.

@olivia_macs @mircomusolesi @uclcs Congratulations!

[Olivia Macmillan-Scott @olivia_macs]

Two papers out on the same day!

Using tasks from cognitive psychology we evaluate 7 LLMs and show that they display irrationality, but not in the same way humans do. They are often incorrect in ways that differ from human-like biases.
