Lupin spent five episodes mastering disguise and plotting impossible heists at the Louvre. Meanwhile, someone just walked in during daylight and did it.

Would you let AI (LLMs) cheat for you? New work out in @nature.com shows that people are indeed willing to instruct AI in ways that will benefit themselves, despite not being totally honest. Great work by @nckobis.bsky.social and @iyadrahwan.bsky.social et al 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Can we turn a science fiction thought experiment into an actual experiment? Check out our new @nature.com paper on the "Science Fiction Science" method (summarized by @jfbonnefon.bsky.social below)

We need data, not guesses, on how future tech may reshape behavior & society. Our new paper with @azimshariff.bsky.social and @iyadrahwan.bsky.social out in @nature.com spells out a framework we call the ❝science fiction science method❞ (sci-fi-sci) + www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This is the kind of outcome we foretold six years ago in a paper aptly titled Drivers Are Blamed More Than Their Automated Cars When Both Make Mistakes, with @awad.bsky.social @sohandsouza.info @sydneylevine.bsky.social @maxkw.bsky.social @azimshariff.bsky.social @iyadrahwan.bsky.social

🧠 Is your research still relying on Western participants? 15 years after “The WEIRDest People in the World” by Henrich et al., most studies still overuse WEIRD samples. In this paper, published in in Behavior Research Methods, I offer digital pathways to move beyond that. 1/5

How can we improve the #CogSci of values and decision-making? Closing the #BioXPhi Summit, a keynote from Edmond @awad.bsky.social proposed more factors, scale, etc. How? #games + #processDissociation Examples: last-haven.net tinker-tots.net Follow Dr. Awad! www.researchgate.net/profile/Edmo...

The team hope that by understanding how people make complex decisions about competing human and non-human priorities, they will be able to inform more ethically grounded decisions. Read the letter here: buff.ly/sDtpBEv @awad.bsky.social‬

'As the UK considers the future of its planning frameworks, we hope that those making these important decisions, and indeed all of us, will reflect on the values at stake.' Dr Edmond Awad, from the NeuroSec Group led by Professor Ilina Singh at the Department of Psychiatry, writes to the Guardian.

Glad to see that @theguardian.com published my letter on one of the most urgent dilemmas we face today: how to balance housing needs with protecting nature. 📄 www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Genetic selection of pre-implantation embryos is happening now and will, increasingly, be possible for more traits. An Oxford University research project is seeking volunteers who will make some hypothetical choices online.

Explore our new research platform, Last Haven — a gamified experience where you make tough choices between protecting endangered species' habitats and advancing human needs. 👉 last-haven.net

Tigers, snakes, plants - what if their last habitat stood in the way of a hospital? #LastHaven asks: how do we choose between protecting nature and meeting human needs? Take part in this citizen science project today. Learn more:https://last-haven.net #PhilosophyMatters

Always a pleasant surprise to see the #MoralMachine make an appearance in the wild now and then. (Last week's Cambridge Disinformation Summit talk by Fabio Motoki) @iyadrahwan.bsky.social @awad.bsky.social @jfbonnefon.bsky.social @azimshariff.bsky.social

Recently, we launched Tinker Tots (tinker-tots.net) — a platform where people can reflect on how they make decisions based on embryo attributes. Coincidentally, the @nytimes.com published a 3-part series on polygenic embryo screening the same day 🔗 www.nytimes.com/interactive/... 1/7

Come hear about moral psychology and AI at 11am today at #SPSP2025! @awad.bsky.social @zoepurcell.bsky.social Anne-Marie Nussberger

🚨 Now accepting commentary proposals!! 🚨Thrilled to share that our paper --- "Resource-rational contractualism: A triple theory of moral cognition" --- was accepted for publication at Behavioral and Brain Sciences and is open for commentary!

Help! Is there any equivalent feature to Bookmarks on @bsky.app ? I found posts about interesting papers that I want to save to my hard disk later and probably never read in the future.

First post here! In order to put Bluesky @bsky.app app in my first Home Screen for quick access I had to move out an app that i haven’t been using at all lately. That app was Dark Sky.
