So I get that a Neuroscientist Couldn’t Understand a Microprocessor, and TBH I’m ok with that. But could a neuroscientist understand a deep RNN? Because that seems like a more pressing issue. *assuming you think the brain operates through the parallel activity of many connected input/output units

A study led by Cina Aghamohammadi is now out in ‪@natcomms.nature.com‬! We developed a mathematical framework for partitioning spiking variability, which revealed that spiking irregularity is nearly invariant for each neuron and decreases along the cortical hierarchy. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Over the past year, my lab has been working on fleshing out theory + applications of the Platonic Representation Hypothesis. Today I want to share two new works on this topic: Eliciting higher alignment: arxiv.org/abs/2510.02425 Unpaired learning of unified reps: arxiv.org/abs/2510.08492 1/9

Superposition has reshaped interpretability research. In our @unireps.bsky.social paper led by @andre-longon.bsky.social we show it also matters for measuring alignment! Two systems can represent the same features yet appear misaligned if those features are mixed differently across neurons.

Superposition disentanglement of neural representations reveals hidden alignment

The superposition hypothesis states that a single neuron within a population may participate in the representation of multiple features in order for the population to represent more features than the ...
