AI slop is everywhere. But what is it doing to our ability to know what is real online? And how can we protect ourselves from its influence? I talk with my friend @phdcomics.com (Or is it AI? You decide!). #neuroskyence 🧠 #neuroscience #AI www.iheart.com/podcast/1119...
Very thankful!

Generative AI is getting so good at warping reality that even “cute animal” videos can be a gateway to something more insidious. I explain why this may work on normal brains, and suggest several firewalls to interrupt the hack. #AI #Neuroskyence open.substack.com/pub/dwaynego...
A page in a book with a section discussing brain research in the 1800's. The page has a small comic showing a person sitting in a chair with a surgeon on their left, holding a saw, and a person on the right holding clips connected to something electrical. The caption says "Gulp, not a good time to be a brain research volunteer.
I really like how some nonfiction books are starting to include comics in them. I am reading Out of Your Mind by @dwaynegodwin.bsky.social and @phdcomics.com and there are comics throughout each chapter and some comic interludes.

Closing out my year with a journal editor shocker 🧵
