@trq212 @ClaudeDevs Another big papercut: when answering Claude's questions, pressing Esc closes the whole dialog and destroys what you've already typed. For those of us who use Vim mode, this is really frustrating. Bites me all the time. Should probably be bound to Ctrl-C if you have Vim enabled.

@trq212 @ClaudeDevs Would love a way of easily accessing previous prompts *within the current conversation* as opposed to globally across sessions! (Either cycling with arrows, or search, ideally both). And hotkeys for copying them :)

@voooooogel also noticing that I have a hard time understanding Claudemoji sometimes. wonder if it really learned a mapping from face to emotion that doesn't match mine, or if its post hoc explanations are what doesn't match. whole thing is very (☉▽☉)

@eriskiiii It was in response to "Excellent, well put" lol

[Will Mayner @wgpm.bsky.social @wmayner]

@voooooogel Wild. Was this a bare Claude or were there any memories/customizations/other chats in the context?

[Will Mayner @wgpm.bsky.social @wmayner]

The questions didn't make it into the recording, so you can only hear my responses—but the questions were great and so were the discussions afterwards. Thanks to @NaoTsuchiya, Hayato Saigo, & @Ellia_Francesco for organizing such an excellent summer school at @NeuroscienceSAS!

I was very happy to talk about my work on extending Integrated Information Theory to account for perception & meaning with @Bjørn-Juel. The talk is geared towards those already familiar with IIT, but may still be of interest even if you're not. Paper: https://t.co/1pgHElbsBu
