b'Today we\\u2019re joined by Alona Fyshe, an assistant professor at the University of Alberta.\\xa0\\n\\nWe caught up with Alona on the heels of an interesting panel discussion that she participated in, centered around improving AI systems using research about brain activity. In our conversation, we explore the multiple types of brain images that are used in this research, what representations look like in these images, and how we can improve language models without knowing explicitly how the brain understands the language. We also discuss similar experiments that have incorporated vision, the relationship between computer vision models and the representations that language models create, and future projects like applying a reinforcement learning framework to improve language generation.\\n\\nThe complete show notes for this episode can be found at twimlai.com/go/513.'
