🚨ATTN Natural Stories users!🚨

We found a misalignment in the self-paced reading times. Everything is off by one position. In the released dataset, the SPR RTs for the word at index t are actually for index t+1. If you are using the dataset, please use the realigned data.

@greggrossetti @gelliottmorris probably know this but the model you're referring to has moved to the Silver Bulletin...

Once, we ran a study on Prolific and a participant wrote on Reddit that the study “Felt like I was losing the will to live.” I went on the Prolific Subreddit (24k members!) and asked what matters. Here is what they told me. A thread on happier participants and better studies 1/9

@EvelinaLeivada @LanguageMIT @lexfridman I know the best models now are all chat focused rlhf etc. but at least for those trained on a pure language modelling objective, wouldn’t a better way to access their “theory of what’s English” be to compare probabilities of input strings?

Now that the eclipse is within the short range, global ensembles add less value while more high resolution models become available.

I switched my eclipse page to use the High Resolution Ensemble Forecast (HREF), including a cloud layer breakdown:

@ybgoi I think it’s interesting that if you just imagine a rubber band stretched from A to B, your mental simulation of what it would do is correct.

It was an amazing experience to film our music video at the beautiful historic @est8ofmind Oakhurst Manor back in November. Very sadly, I learned that they suffered a devastating fire there on March 1st. Thankfully and most importantly no one was injured. But they are - (1/2)

It was so much fun to be a part of this production.

[James McCarthy @JamMcCarthy]

The video for Dancing With A Shadow is out now.

Starring: Katherine Bickford & Jacob Louis Hoover @postylem

It was an incredible experience working with a great cast and crew. Stephanie Houten (Director) and Dara Nicole Capley (Choregrapher), thank you.

Wow that’s a really cool visualization of an LLM completion distribution. I want to see more interactive visualizations like this.

[Santiago Ortiz @moebio]

Interactive visualization of chatgpt completion probabilities, I ask it to to complete the prompt "When " hundreds of times.

@MatthewBJane it would be pdf_{X,Y} integrated from y=-infty to y=a, renormalized, right? (is there something that makes this intractable?)

Need a reminder about how to report effect size or confidence intervals for your frequentist stats model? This looks very promising resource: https://t.co/xXeaNyjlkF

Now out in @PNASNews! Large-scale reading evidence that next-word predictability effects in humans are driven by *inference* (logarithmic in predictability) rather than preactivation (linear in predictability). https://t.co/qZLNXp7FQh

Have you ever done a dense grid search over neural network hyperparameters? Like a *really dense* grid search? It looks like this (!!). Blueish colors correspond to hyperparameters for which training converges, redish colors to hyperparameters for which training diverges.

@dylancgiles @RIPTA_RI late to the party but mine was nice

@SNEWxCenter is that temperature colorscheme reversed? or better for celsius at least…. got me confused for a bit expecting red to be warmer and blue colder.

@miniapeur Incompleteness (Gödel's 2nd). It's both amazing and surprising, and frustrating, and fascinating again, and then just perfect that it can even be proven. And after that roller coaster it feels just so right.
