How the human brain is like a murmuration of starlings | Aeon Essays The brain is much less like a machine than it is like the murmurations of a flock of starlings or an orchestral symphony

@pessoabrain.bsky.social drops knowledge on us. Neuron spiking is highly coordinated. Waves of electric field influences are a great way to do that.

The Geometric Intelligence Lab @ UC Santa Barbara The mission of the Geometric Intelligence Lab is to reveal the geometric signatures of natural and artificial intelligence.

Hi Bluesky! I’m an Assist Prof at UCSB’s Geometric Intelligence Lab @geometric-intel.bsky.social, decoding the geometric signatures of intelligence 🧠✨

We bridge physics, neuro, math & AI to uncover how intelligence emerges + build intelligent models to advance the brain sciences!

A Twisted Path to Equation-Free Prediction | Quanta Magazine Complex natural systems defy analysis using a standard mathematical toolkit, so one ecologist is throwing out the equations.

I've been asked (re the book), "Are there bits of other fields that neuroscientists have overlooked?" Yes! Taken's theorem and work by George Sugihara.

TL;DR: You can predict the future of a complex system even if you don't know all the causal variables.
