What It’s Like to Brainstorm with a Bot At the frontiers of knowledge, researchers are discovering that A.I. doesn’t just take prompts—it gives them, too, sparking new forms of creativity and collaboration.

Professor Daniel Rockmore authors a column in the @newyorker.com about harnessing AI as a research collaborator, with examples from fellow #Dartmouth faculty @lukejchang.bsky.social and @jeremyrmanning.bsky.social‬.

Experimentology cover: title and curves for distributions.

Experimentology cover: title and curves for distributions.

Experimentology is out today!!! A group of us wrote a free online textbook for experimental methods, available at experimentology.io - the idea was to integrate open science into all aspects of the experimental workflow from planning to design, analysis, and writing.

it's a good question. I think sometimes the costs are very explicit - particularly in more transactional relationships. Other times though I do think these costs are more hidden where there might be an implicit agreement to reciprocate with some unknown favor in the future (e.g., the godfather).

New paper demonstrating the hidden cost of receiving favors led by Xiaoxue Gao with @eshjolly.bsky.social, Hongbo Yu, Huiying Liu, & Xiaolin Zhou. We demonstrate that brain patterns of emotional states can be integrated with economic utility models to predict reciprocity behavior bit.ly/41Pm7O2.
