Understanding how humans select, rehearse, and transform internal representations 'in mind' is vital. Gaining access to these latent working-memory processes, however, is not trivial. Here, I review the recent discovery that working-memory ...

When we read, we make predictions about upcoming words; these predictions influence our reading behavior. The success of large language models (LLMs), which, like humans, make predictions about upcoming words, has motivated their use as mod...

Natural behavior unfolds as a continuous stream of actions. Because these actions often occur in rapid succession, the brain must prepare multiple future actions while the current action is being executed-a process we refer to as online pla...

Bayesian efficient coding unifies two foundational theories of sensory processing: efficient coding and Bayesian inference. Central to this account is the idea that natural environmental statistics shape both how sensory information is enco...

Recent discoveries from Been et al., Schoenemann et al., and Verheijen et al. challenge our understanding of Neanderthals. Their brains appear more human-like than previously believed, and their hunting is cooperative and well organized. Ye...

What do artificial intelligence (AI) systems "understand"? This question arises not only in assessing a system's intelligence but also in evaluation practices to ensure the safe and responsible deployment of AI. Drawing on scholarship from ...

From petitionary prayers to pilgrimages, rituals are found in every known culture. Yet, the reason for their persistence is a matter of active debate. Some studies portray rituals as attempts to affect uncertain outcomes, whereas others emp...
