Ambitious Brain Recordings Create Unprecedented Portrait of Vision in Action
Single-cell imaging across the brain’s visual cortex lets researchers track sensory processing from perception to action, resulting in new insights about the structure of neuronal signaling and new inspiration for computer vision.

The Time Is Now to Develop Community Norms for the Release of Foundation Models
Perspectives about the benefits and risks of release vary widely. We propose setting up a review board to develop community norms and encourage coordination on release for research access.
