No two humans behave exactly alike. But what about neural networks? We found early evidence that human-like individual differences in behavior emerge from networks trained with different initializations. Here’s a peek at our results—to be presented at UniReps & DBM @NeurIPS. Full paper on the way!

Human-like individual differences emerge from random weight initializations in neural networks
Much of AI research targets the behavior of an average human, a focus that traces to Turing's imitation game. Yet, no two human individuals behave exactly alike. In this study, we show that artificial...

Presenting our
#NeurIPS2025
work on model–behavior alignment today. Could we even recognize the “right” model of behavior under flexible evaluation? Come chat about DNNs & human visual preception! Hall C-E #2010 Friday (today!) 4:30 – 7:30 PM
