On Monday, we'll meet to talk about the viral MIT preprint paper, "Your Brain on ChatGPT," where they scanned people's brains while they wrote essays with or without ChatGPT. Read it here: www.brainonllm.com/ and join us to analyze their methods!

It would be more appropriate to wait until papers are peer reviewed, finished with revisions, and published

Why Noon on a Monday, do you want less attendance?

It's wrong to suggest less brain activation is associated with less cognative ability as it's the hallmark of certain kinds of flow states. Simply we should acknowledge that interacting with a llm is a cognitively distinct task.

Are we all ready to know the obvious, like how much less brain activities we engaged when we don't do the thinking ourselves 🥲
