#CoreCognition #LLM #multimodal #GrowAI We spent 3 years to curate 1503 classic experiments spanning 12 core concepts in human cognitive development and evaluated on 230 MLLMs with 11 different prompts for 5 times to get over 3.8 millions inference data points. A thread (1/n) - #ICML2025 ✅

Finally finish making our website 💐 growing-ai-like-a-child.github.io 🤩 with @carrot0817.bsky.social @marstin.bsky.social @tonyfeng.bsky.social @zoryzhang.bsky.social and many others @growai.bsky.social🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️🚶
