I had so much fun working on this with Colin, @michaelfbonner and @leylaisi, but most of all @NeuroKathyG. It was a joy to work so closely with someone during one of the final projects of my PhD and am delighted to see it out!.
📢 Excited to announce our latest pre-print: “Modeling dynamic social vision highlights gaps between deep learning and humans”! 🌟 w/ @emaliemcmahon, Colin Conwell, @michaelfbonner, and @leylaisi🧵 #NeuroAI #CognitiveScience [1/7]

Thank you for, @TobiasGrossman3 engaging with my and @leylaisi's recent review on visual processing of social interactions. In our response, we argue that there is preliminary evidence that children and other primates also "see" social interactions.
