I spoke with '24 Nobel Laureate (!!) Geoff Hinton and our very own Jay McClelland about all things AI. Ft. backlash they faced for studying neural networks, AI alignment challenges, DeepSeek and AI agents, language as Lego blocks. Still pinching myself! stanfordpsychologypodcast.com/episodes/episo…

New paper with @IkeMDSilver1 and @deborahasmall just out at Psychological Science: People often compare bad acts to other bad acts. Is it worse to kill two people than to kill one? Should someone who assaulted an adult be punished less than someone who did the same to a child?…
