1-panel SMBC comic update. A man with a beard sits in the left corner, agitated, stating "Bill Gates put microchips in me! Hundreds of ‘em!" A man wearing glasses swiftly turns towards him, asking "really? What year? Do they have onboard memory? Where are you sleeping tonight?" The caption below the comic reads "The RAM shortage takes a dark turn."

A court in München sentenced that suno.ai used without permission copyrighted material to train their generative music model. Gema, the German society for musical performing and mechanical reproduction rights, obtained this result in a quite a smart way... 1/4 www.sueddeutsche.de/projekte/art...

AI boosters like to claim it'll help ⬇️ fossil fuel emissions They've been silent on AI ⬆️efficiency in finding & extracting fossil fuels Turns out enabled emissions fr fossil fuel productivity gains EXCEED avoided emissions fr renewables productivity gains whenever fossil-sector gains are nonzero

AI’s potential climate benefits outweighed by role in boosting fossil fuels, study finds

Modelling finds AI-driven productivity gains in coal, oil and gas enable more emissions than applications in renewables avoid

Together with Teresa Berther, @martinasaltafossi.bsky.social, @eliobalestrieri.bsky.social, and @ualsbombe.bsky.social, we have developed a pipeline which uses IAAFT-based respiration time series surrogates to then adapt gold-standard cluster permutation testing for circular (phase-binned) data.

Did anyone use correlations for a temporal generalisation analysis? I have a hard time finding something, but it seems straight forward (and symmetric) for my problem at hand. I want to do encoding, not decoding analyses. Pointers greatly appreciated ! #eeg

Excited to share the first preprint of my postdoc! We explored a novel features space to describe M-EEG timeseries. These features are highly informative in differentiating brain states, even more than canonical features like power in predefined frequency bands! :D www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
