Astrocytes may Explain the Brain's Massive Storage Capacity
The brain's storage capacity has been modeled with networks, and synapses with more than one link are needed to explain the vast storage ability of the human brain. But synapses are typically thought of as places where only two neurons meet. So the missing storage space may lie in astrocytes.

Your Brain on ChatGPT: Accumulation of Cognitive Debt when Using an AI Assistant for Essay Writing Task
#Science #brain #neuropsychology #gehirn
Eine einzigartige Studie des MIT zeigt, dass eine übermäßige Abhängigkeit von Tools wie ChatGPT zu einem massiven Rückgang der kognitiven Funktionen führt.
Vier Monate lang untersuchten die Forscher, was mit Menschen geschah, die ChatGPT zur Erledigung von Schreibaufgaben nutzten, im Vergleich zu denen, die dies nicht taten.
🧵 …falls zum obigen Thema KI & Denk- so wie Erinnerungsvermögen, noch detaillierter darauf eingehen wollt, ist hier der Link zum Orginal auf arXiv auch per PDF downloadbar:

Best IQ Tests
IQ research contributes to our understanding of human cognition and brain function. Studies utilizing IQ test data have explored the genetic and environmental influences on intelligence, the neural correlates of cognitive abilities, and the relationship between intelligence and various life outcomes.

Dear un-scene friends,
As we may know, not everything is what coming apart at the seams, IT seems. Back in ye olde days, Information Technology was the buzzword for computing.
These days, generation Youngling is lost without a mobile station aka #brain sucker and usually with 2
Luckily I am here to heel the dawg, using my notorious lack of #skills:
- Watched this for a second time. Still #sane. Allegedly.
https://youtu.be/9KArWcMldPM?feature=shared
- I would recommend my website but who wouldn't, if they had one
- I am almost dead. Thank the #gods that don't exist that it concerns no one, Not even You, we or them :success: :agummyhug: :mastodance:

"EEG revealed significant differences in #brain connectivity: Brain-only participants exhibited the strongest, most distributed networks; Search Engine users showed moderate engagement; and #LLM users displayed the weakest connectivity
… Self-reported ownership of essays was the lowest in the LLM group and the highest in the Brain-only group. LLM users also struggled to accurately quote their own work. While LLMs offer immediate convenience, our findings highlight potential cognitive costs. Over four months, LLM users consistently underperformed at neural, linguistic, and behavioral levels."
“I do not see emotions and feelings as the intangible and vaporous qualities that many presume them to be. Their subject matter is concrete, and they can be related to specific systems in body and brain, no less so than vision or speech.”

I love the idea of citizen neuroscience because I think it's a great way to involve the public in science and in some areas of neuroscience, it's important to go beyond the WEIRD brain.
But most people I know outside science haven't really heard about it. So I wrote an article explaining what citizen neuroscience is and giving some cool project examples.
Feel free to share. And if you know of any projects that I didn't mention, please drop them below (bonus if they're outside the Western world).

As the educational impact of LLM use only begins to settle with the general population, in this study we demonstrate the pressing matter of a likely decrease in learning skills based on the results of our study. #llm #ai #intelligence #education #learning #brain https://www.brainonllm.com/
