Yale researchers have developed a new kind of brain-computer interface that lets humans play video games directly with their brains, with potential benefits far beyond making your controller obsolete. Learn how they did it — and why. @wutsaiyale.bsky.social

Improving AI may depend on finding what others overlook. For Yale computer scientist Yuejie Chi, that means identifying subtle signals hidden in vast amounts of data. In a Q&A, she explains how this work can help AI systems perform more complex tasks.
Want to improve AI? Look for the helpful data hidden in plain sight
In a Q&A, Yale data scientist Yuejie Chi discusses her ongoing research into making AI more efficient.

Music may play a bigger role in how we connect than we realize. A Yale study finds that listening to simple chord progressions during personal interactions increases brain activity linked to social connection, suggesting music may help us better understand and bond with one another.
Striking a chord: How music primes our minds for connection
Listening to simple chord progressions during personal interactions boosts brain activity linked to social connection, a Yale study finds, offering new evidence that music may strengthen how we understand -- and bond with -- one another.
