NeuroAI papers that caught my interest last month: brain-image alignment | brain scaling laws | brain-to-text decoding Sharing quick takeaways on these papers alongside raw technical notes: paulscotti.substack.com/p/neuroai-im...

I resigned from Stability AI after over a year working as Head of NeuroAI. A personal retrospective on my journey with open science communities and how Stability AI’s role in the “science-in-the-open” movement was such a pivotal phenomenon: paulscotti.com/blog/leaving...

Transformers are usually considered biologically implausible but maybe the brain actually does do self-attention + feed-forward operations astrocytes could enable a biologically plausible solution to transformer mechanisms in the brain www.pnas.org/doi/pdf/10.1...

It’s really heart breaking to realize just how much our short horizon, outcome focused funding cycles hurt science. We could do so much more if we could invest in people long term. Staff scientist positions and an ecosystem to support them are direly needed.

This is big: in collaboration with E11 Bio and @andrewcpayne.bsky.social, we are announcing today a new way to map brain circuits at scale. With improvements in AI and microscopy I think whole brain mouse and maybe human brain mapping will be feasible in ~5-10 years. 1/

An actionable comprehensive paper regarding roadmaps for NeuroAI, highly recommend a read esp if any of the following topics sound interesting: Foundation brain models Sensory and embodied digital twins Brain data to improve AI models Neuro-inspired mech. interpretability

🧠👁️ Our MindEye2 preprint is out! We reconstruct seen images from fMRI activity using only 1 hour of training data. This is possible by first pretraining a shared-subject model using other people's data, and then fine-tuning on a held-out subject with only 1 hr of data. arxiv.org/abs/2403.11207

Happy to share that I am now Head of Neuroimaging at Stability AI! My role is to lead the MedARC Neuroimaging & AI Lab: medarc.ai/fmri The lab is remote, open-source, and open to the public to join. Tons of potential to rethink what a research lab is and benefit from crowd-sourced intelligence.
