Thank you so much to @newscientist.com Live for the opportunty to talk about AI consciousness (& how we really, really don't have a good way of testing for it)! Headlines & scientists saying "OMG it might be conscious, 5% chance" are sensationalism BS. Based on what? Vibes? Not good enough for me.

The experience machine #lecturasMV Una introducción muy accesible a la teoría del procesamiento predictivo. Creo que en ocasiones exagera el poder explicativo de la teoría, sobre todo en el ámbito de la psicopatología. Pero en cualquier caso hace una cobertura interesante y extensa de la literatura.

Over the next several months, we will phase out some popular OSF features. These changes do not affect current public content, which remains safe and accessible. We have prepared support material to help users adapt. I am very sorry for the disruption to your work. Please read this post for details.
