New piece from our colleague Daniela Rus
From Daniela Rus, director of @MIT_CSAIL: Universities founded centuries ago are the ones poised to tackle problems far enough removed from the market demands and day-to-day profit margins that drive industry’s shareholders. https://t.co/OrIKmT1OkX

Exciting research from @JamesJDiCarlo and colleagues
Researchers have made an AI computer vision model more robust by training it to work like a part of the brain that humans and other primates rely on for object recognition. Read more: https://t.co/FWDtqVWJMM

A new computational model mimics humans’ ability to predict the emotions of others. It’s based on the idea that “the mental states underlying emotion are about what you wanted, what you expected, what happened, and who saw,” says Rebecca Saxe. https://t.co/6darGSd46W
