How did rumors spread in revolutionary France? A recent @nature paper take an epidemiological approach to understand the spread of the "great fear" in France... and is an example of the type of social science work that we are now publishing www.nature.com/articles/s41...

The new journal "Experimental Philosophy" is now on BlueSky. @xphijournal.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/xphi... Please share!

This time with a better graphic and an actual date 😶 catch our symposium on realism in neuroscience at ISPSM👀 @ispsm.bsky.social

APS Fellow @lewan.bsky.social & colleagues have recently developed the Anti-Autocracy Handbook, which they describe as “a call to action, resilience, and collective defense of democracy, truth, and academic freedom in the face of mounting authoritarianism.”

🎙️AI and Mental Health: Alberto Giubilini joins Michele De Prisco on the Brains On Brains podcast from @ecnp.eu Can AI act as a moral advisor in psychiatry? What consent and equity dilemmas do we face? Should we fear or embrace these tools? youtu.be/1b-azyBd3A8?... #ethics #mentalhealth #AIEthics

Congratulations @cmtneztt.bsky.social & co-authors for this study on wealth inequality in Spain - the first of its kind at the autonomous region level. The new Spain Wealth Atlas will be a very useful tool to track the evolution of wealth inequality across space and time. spainwealthatlas.world

Drug trafficking is not a capital crime; it doesn’t carry a death sentence. I genuinely cannot think of anything under U.S. law that would permit premeditated government assassination of people suspected of drug trafficking.

Scientific modeling practices, and Suárez’s inferential view, struggle to fit neural representations. Yet these are not mere theoretical posits; they are real, causally efficacious entities playing essential roles. Read the article here 👉🏽 revistaseug.ugr.es/index.php/te...

Many people seem to be turning to AI when they feel lonely or anxious. Some may even confide in a chatbot if they’re having thoughts of suicide. So, how do chatbots respond when asked questions about suicide? Our new study addresses this important topic. bit.ly/45RdftT

We interviewed some of the mathematicians who contributed the hardest questions to FrontierMath on when they expect AI to solve their problem, what a correct solution would reveal about AI’s abilities, and the future of math in the age of AI. www.youtube.com/watch?v=nko...

La interpretación de Tom Cruise como Ron Kovic en "Nacido el Cuatro de Julio" es una de las más grandes de la historia del cine, y no cedo en ello. Luego llegarían los blockbusters, el héroe de acción y el mito del "stunt". Pero si entonces le hubieran dado el Oscar…

🧵 New paper. We unify trust constructs and offer measurable trust-factors for empirical research in AI-mediated healthcare; useful for study design and evaluation. Read it here 👇 link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Un síntoma del politeísmo axiológico, la fragmentación, polarización… Es que ya no hay canción del verano.

Very excited this important report assessing the state of independent research on tech is out!

“Without immigrants, international students and the children of immigrants, the undergraduate student population in America would be almost 5 million students smaller in 2037 than 2022, or about two-thirds of its current size, ... ,” according to the NFAP study. www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...

England was pretty cosmopolitan in the early medieval period it turns out www.thetimes.com/article/9e23...

Formemos más metacientíficos (aquellos que utilizan el método científico para mejorar la ciencia) en lugar de científicos (aquellos que utilizan el método científico para incrementar el conocimiento). Sobre todo si hay estructuras, entidades e incentivos que no buscan incrementar el conocimiento.

No comprendo el debate sobre la IA en educación: los educandos seguirán usando sus propias facultades (y existen métodos para verificarlo) y solo en las asignaturas que lo requieran se les enseñará a trabajar con ella. Win-Win para todos.

It strikes me that a good way to become well known is to be wildly wrong with confidence The reason I am not more well known is probably because I'm always right. Just saying

🧠 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

Already published the ‘Teorema’ #FreeWill book symposium on Sapolsky’s ‘Determined’, with contributions by @wiringthebrain.bsky.social and others. revistaseug.ugr.es/index.php/te...

In Science, researchers detail a nanoscale-resolution reconstruction of a millimeter-scale fragment of human cerebral cortex, giving an unprecedented view into the structural organization of brain tissue at the supracellular, cellular, and subcellular levels. #WorldBrainDay scim.ag/3FvpAKy

A fascinating and clear presentation on the complexities of studying genetic causes of psychiatric disorders, with wonderful quotes, like this: "the genome doesn’t owe us a specific answer when we interrogate it to study the etiology of something as complex as schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. "

BBC Verify dug into Israel's widespread demolitions in #Gaza. Main legal points: ✖️It isn't plausible that every case is covered by imperative military necessity. Destruction of property in occupied territory without imperative mil necessity is a war crime. www.bbc.co.uk/news/resourc...

I want it to do everything, and for the wealth it creates to be distributed under a veil of ignorance. Then I’ll decide whether I do the dishes, the laundry, make art, write, clean the bathroom or none of them

1/11 Excited to share our @Naturestudy led by @leonooi.bsky.social @csabaorban.bsky.social @shaoshiz.bsky.social AI performance is known to scale with logarithm of sample size (Kaplan 2020), but in many domains, sample size can be # participants or # measurements... doi.org/10.1038/s415...

Superman nos protege de billonarios tecnológicos-egolatras que quieren destruir la sociedad para su propio beneficio. Cualquier parecido con la realidad es pura coincidencia (¿no?) #HollywoodDelLadoCorrectoDeLaHistoria

La IA no es más que la recapitulación de un perenne y milenario debate filosófico sobre cómo se crea una mente/inteligencia. Empirismo (aprendizaje no-supervisado, aprendizaje profundo…) o racionalismo (GOFAI, sistemas expertos, IA simbólica…)

Nuestro compañero @anibalmastobiza.bsky.social presentará, junto a Rafael Mestre y Sergey Astakhov (University of Southampton), la ponencia Future Ethics: Principles for Governing Bio-Hybrid Robotics en #LivingMachines2025 (Sheffield, 16–18 julio). 🔗 livingmachinesconference.eu/2025

New Op-ed: "Welfare for the 21st century" www.ox.ac.uk/news/2025-07... I discuss British welfare reform, what we have learned from #basicincome and #jobguarantee experiments, and argue that we should create a truly comprehensive safety net for all. cc @oxfordecondept.bsky.social @INETOxford

The facts are simple and devastating: Aid cuts have already cost lives, and the number of deaths will continue to rise. Here’s the evidence. ​
