postdoc at SISSA: How come my tongue got stuck?
by Alessandro Treves Oct. 16, 2023

Oct. 16, 2023

New research in our limbo group (Ryom and Treves, Phys Rev X Life, 2023, and unpublished) and extensive data on language parameters collected by Longobardi and collaborators (Ceolin et al, Phil Trans Roy Soc B, 2021) suggest that language diversity may reflect the disordered freezing dynamics that in a spin glass leads to a multiplicity of ground states. In a simplified model, vectors of binary syntactic parameters interact via strong asymmetric logical implications and weak partly symmetric influences, which can produce critical slowing down through a novel mechanism of percolated freezing. A postdoc position is available at SISSA, in Trieste, to carry this project further into uncharted territory, see https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.03152. Whatever their background, candidates should be keen to develop new mathematical and computational statistical approaches to evolutionary neuro-linguistics and enjoy learning about issues and narratives in scientific communities other than their own. A formal call with deadline Dec 10th, 2023 will be issued shortly. Meanwhile, check https://people.sissa.it/~ale/limbo.html and write to ale(a)sissa.it<mailto:ale@sissa.it> for inquiries. ---------------------------------------------- Alessandro Treves Liminar Investigations of Memory and Brain Organization Cognitive Neuroscience, SISSA, Trieste, Italy +39 349 2504602 http://people.sissa.it/~ale/limbo.html

POSVAR HALL: 230 S Bouquet St, Pittsburgh, PA 15213, United States * Associated Event: IEEE-EMBS International Conference on Biomedical and Health Informatics (BHI’23) Workshop Details: The rapid progression of brain-machine interface (BMI) technology has heralded a transformative era in human-machine interactions. The direct interface between the human brain and external devices, coupled with groundbreaking advancements in artificial intelligence, presents an exciting frontier of exploration and innovation. At the heart of this revolution lies ChatGPT, OpenAI's state-of-the-art language model, known for its prowess in natural language processing and generation. Our upcoming workshop aims to delve deep into the challenges and prospects surrounding the integration of ChatGPT (GPT3, GPT4-like models) into BMI systems: 1. Overcoming existing limitations such as low signal resolution, signal latency, and the complications surrounding invasive neural implants to develop an effective connection between brain and machine. 2. Adapting ChatGPT, GPT-like model or Generative AI to interpret and produce text that syncs flawlessly with a user's intentions while abiding by ethical and privacy mandates. Opportunities Awaiting: 1. Revolutionizing communication capabilities of BMIs by translating thoughts into text-based information, thereby refining the dynamics of human-machine interaction. 2. Exploiting ChatGPT's inherent natural language capabilities to usher in more intuitive and user-friendly BMI interfaces. This opens up vistas of possibilities for individuals with limited mobility to engage with the world around them. 3. Using ChatGPT as an interface between users and external systems, this bridge has the potential to transform the lives of those with disabilities, granting them unhindered access to technology, be it drafting emails, internet browsing, or maneuvering smart devices. 4. The recurrent engagement of users with ChatGPT offers prospects for crafting personalized and adaptable BMI systems, escalating user gratification and optimizing system outputs. Call for Panelists: We invite passionate researchers, experts, and enthusiasts in the field of BMI, artificial intelligence, and neurotechnology to join our panel discussion.
