🧵 I gave Claude two things: a short paper (doi.org/10.1073/pnas...) and a raw behavioural dataset with 3 lines of variable descriptions. Then I asked it to fit three computational RL models described only by equations in the manuscript. No code, no toolbox, no guidance on the fitting procedure. 1/3

This, to be considered by the House of Commons this afternoon, needs to cause as much political trouble for the government as the welfare bill. Ask your MP to stand up for the right to protest.

Today, the UK government intends to ban the non-violent protesters Palestine Action as a "terrorist" group, exposing anyone supporting them to terrorism charges. In 2 days, 380,000 people have watched this video on YT alone. You're going to need a bigger prison. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ECkV...

If thousands of us stand up and say "I support #PalestineAction", what is the government going to do? Lock us all up for "terrorism" offences? This is where we show them how solidarity works. My latest with the great @doubledown.news

As we seem to, yet again, be talking about the hot UK summer of 1976, a reminder that the UK is not the world. Yes, it was hot that summer over our small region, but the bigger picture tells a different story. And, we've had hotter UK summers since.

The government's Crime and Policing Bill is at Report Stage in the House of Commons. Yet scarcely anyone is alert to the implications of Sections 114 & 115, which (as everywhere's close to a place of worship), greatly increase police powers to shut down protest. Please tell MPs and friendly peers.
