On the Opportunities and Risks of Foundation Models
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
This report provides a thorough account of the opportunities and risks of foundation models, ranging from their capabilities (e.g., language, vision, robotics, reasoning, human interaction) and technical ...
Homogenization provides powerful leverage but demands caution, as the defects of the foundation model are inherited by all the adapted models downstream. ...

Folk biology and the anthropology of science: cognitive universals and cultural particulars
1998
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
These findings cannot be explained by domain-general models of similarity because such models cannot account for why both cultures prefer species-like groups, although Americans have relatively little ...
The example is folk biology, whose cultural recurrence issues from the very same domain-specific cognitive universals that provide the historical backbone of systematic biology. ...
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I thank Doug Medin for commenting on this response, and Peter Stevens, Dan Sperber, Adam Morton, Remo Job, and Luca Surian for clarifying their commentaries for me. ...

Experimental practices in economics: a methodological challenge for psychologists?
2001
Behavioral and Brain Sciences
