🧠 What's the best way to spend compute & neural data to build brain-aligned models? Our new ICML 2026 paper charts the scaling laws across 8 neural datasets & 600+ vision models. 👇 🌐 multimodal-brain-scaling.epfl.ch w/ @davidtyt.bsky.social & @mschrimpf.bsky.social

1/ We disentangle 3 main stages in brain-modeling pipelines: 1) Task pretraining: learn representations from tasks 2) Neural fine-tuning: update the backbone on neural data 3) Neural mapping: fit readouts from model features to brain responses Then ask: how does each scale?
