Excited to have this out! This was a fun project that started with YingQiao and I discussing whether VLMs can do mental simulation of physics like people do, and it culminated in a new method where we prompted image generation models to simulate a series of images frame-by-frame.

out now in Open Mind: "People Evaluate Agents Based on the Algorithms That Drive Their Behavior" by Bigelow & me Paper: direct.mit.edu/opmi/article... OSF: osf.io/yzbrq/?view_...

Our latest on the cognitive science of LLMs! To be presented @CogSci‬2025 🎉 LLMs are increasingly involved in human collaborations. How do LLMs assign responsibility and reward to collaborators? Is it similar to how humans do it? 🤖🧑 📃 gershmanlab.com/pubs/XiangBi... (1/4)
