the title of LeCun's slide says it all.

Thanks, Yann for the great inspiring talk at Harvard.

בגאווה ישראלית גדולה בירכתי היום את פרופסור חיים סומפולינסקי מהאוניברסיטה העברית בירושלים על זכייתו בפרס Lundbeck היוקרתי - הפרס החשוב ביותר בעולם בתחום חקר המוח. מדובר בהישג ישראלי פורץ דרך, שמשקף את מצוינות האקדמיה הישראלית במחקר ובכלל.

אני סמוך ובטוח כי בעקבותיו יבואו עוד…

Jet Blue just entered the Book of Guinness for World Record on Greediness. It cancelled my flight due to weather conditions but refused to fully refund me. They charged me cancellation fee! Never underestimate the creative way companies such as Jet Blue chase your money! advice?

We highlight a study by Ben Sorscher, Surya Ganguli and Haim Sompolinsky in which they explore a quantitative theory of neural geometry and few shot learning in deep neural networks and in macaque inferotemporal cortex (rdcu.be/cZCJ3). nature.com/articles/s4358…

Our new paper Neuron 'A unified theory for the computational and mechanistic origins of grid cells' lead by Ben Sorscher & Gabriel Mel w/Sam Ocko & Lisa Giocomo explains when & why grid cells appear (or don't) in trained neural path-integrators and
