#AcademicRunPlaylist - 8/13/24

A door in a restaurant keg storage facility opening to a dark, medieval cell

It's not every day that you get to explore a medieval dungeon located adjacent to the basement storage area of a restaurant, but thanks to David Harry for my family and I today was that day (I HIGHLY recommend booking him for a tour if you're in London - https://thelondonspy.com/)! When we had some downtime afterwards I was also able to listen to some talks for my #AcademicRunPlaylist!

First was an interesting talk by Srikanth Ramaswamy on modeling neuromodulatory systems and bringing those models to artificial neural networks at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N4XzjtZaxfQ&t=3s

Next was a thought-provoking talk by Axel Gautier on platform dualities and network externalities at PLAMADISO – Platforms, Markets, and the Digital Society https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=juEQv0ltmJI

Last was a wide-ranging talk by Hirokazu Shirado on the dynamics of human-AI hybrid systems at OIST https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-WBHHvQ6rE
