@summerfieldlab.bsky.social and I are very happy to share this paper! Building on work by @scychan.bsky.social, we show that how people learn depends on the distribution of examples they see, and changes in a way that’s very similar to transformer models.

In this Article, @jacquespesnot.bsky.social and @summerfieldlab.bsky.social compare humans to
transformer networks in a task designed to distinguish "in-weights" and "in-context" learning processes.
Pesnot Lerousseau and Summerfield compare humans to transformer neural networks in a learning task designed to distinguish ‘in-weights’ and ‘in-context’ learning processes.
