2/3 Two labs, shared questions, complementary angles: How do humans & artificial agents build models, plan & infer control? How do they recognize failure and decide whether to persist, switch or disengage? Our frontier: meta-control × meta-learning.

If you could design an ecosystem around #adaptive intelligence, #agency, #neuroscience, and human flourishing: 1. What would it contain? 2. What entry points are missing? 3. What kinds of spaces, content, or interactions would you genuinely want to see? Let‘s build together! 🔥🚀 #SciSky #AICogSci

1/2 It feels like online spaces for science and AI are still missing a crucial layer: real human adaptation. Most sites are either siloed, purely technical, or static, failing to help us make meaning or cultivate agency in the face of complexity. We’re reimagining this👇

👇🧠Avoidance is context-specific, shaped by inferred control and feedback reliability. We introduce a persistence-escape paradigm and a model where agency acts as a gating signal, emerging from meta-control over cognitive-affective signals. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6... #AdaptiveIntelligence

Nadja Ging Jehli @nadjagingjehli.bsky.social · 30/03/2026

Resilience under threat may depend on what is built before it. We find that #agency accumulated in „failure-safe“ contexts linked to: • reduced #escape under threat • adaptive responses when control is lost New paradigm + MACA-Q model make agency measurable (preprint soon). #AdaptiveIntelligence

000

Nadja Ging Jehli @nadjagingjehli.bsky.social · 26/03/2026

Why can similar avoidance behavior emerge from distinct processes? In a new paradigm & RL-meta-control model, agency emerges as dynamic quantity 👉same avoidance arises from distinct latent trajectories, with distinct adaptive behavior across contexts. Avoidance depends on context. More to come soon!
