Prior behavioral work showed that event structure plays a key role in our ability to mentally search through memories of continuous naturalistic experience. We hypothesized that, neurally, this mem-...

Excited to share our new preprint with @mtoneva1, @ptoncompmemlab, and @manojneuro), in which we ask if GPT-3 (a large language model) can segment narratives into meaningful events similarly to humans. We use an unconventional approach: ⬇️.
