Teaching a new course @Stanford this quarter on explainable AI, motivated by neuroscience. I have curated a paper list 4 pages long (link in comment). What are your favorite papers on explainable AI/mechanistic interpretability that I am missing? Please comment or DM. thanks!

Brains seem to be wired so that signals are “just right”. This paper argues that there is a special “sweet spot” in how the brain is organized that keeps activity balanced.

Thanks to the diligent work of Reviewer #4, especially after the second-round minor revision stage.

The movement against tyrany and dictatorship will continue ...

[Feng Liu @liufengbrain]

More than 100 years ago, on this day, Chinese students protested against the unfair decision of the Paris Peace Conference, which transferred Germany’s former rights in Shandong to Japan instead of returning them to China. What began as a student protest soon grew into a nationwide movement against imperialism, political weakness, and tyranny.

The May Fourth Movement became a powerful call for national dignity, democracy, science, and modernization. It inspired a new generation of Chinese intellectuals to challenge old traditions, pursue social reform, and seek a stronger and more independent China.

More than a century later, the spirit of May Fourth still reminds us that young people can play a vital role in defending justice, speaking truth to power, and shaping the future of a nation.

When spotting what’s changed from one scene to the next, performance will depend on a low-frequency “theta” brain wave that scans the mental image, a new MIT study in @NeuroCellPress shows https://t.co/kMQb7nRZaz #neuroscience #cognition @ScienceMIT @mitbrainandcog

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal.

If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist.

If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian.

If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.
