Artificial intelligence is rapidly accelerating scientific output, but risks narrowing inquiry, weakening judgement and undermining how scientists are trained.
Some incredibly exciting news that still feels a bit surreal: I am starting my research group @mpicybernetics.bsky.social!
The best part? We are hiring at all levels!
Curious about the science we plan to tackle, read along :)

Representing possible alternatives lies at the heart of moral judgment.
As LLMs become embedded in our reasoning processes, they change the set of alternatives we bring to mind. ๐ญ
Our #CogSci2026 paper shows that AI might be making us judge people harsher. โ๏ธ

Innocent Ampeire has devoted his life to the orphaned chimps at Ngamba Island Sanctuary. He's been accepted into a remote Master's in Conservation Leadership, building the skills to lead conservation and safeguard the sanctuary's future. He's raising ยฃ9,100 for tuition: whydonate.com/fundraising/...
Looking forward to giving a talk tomorrow at the Computational Cognitive Science Colloquium at TU Darmstadt! ๐ฃ๏ธ

What is a psychological theory? Here's our take on this tricky and controversial question in this week's Experimentology chapter summary.
Many things called "theories" in psychology aren't actually theories โ they're frameworks.

The web of constructs and assumptions is what Cronbach (1955) called a "nomological network." Constructs sit above the plane of observation; we only ever measure them indirectly through specific operationalizations.
