Yup, to no one’s surprise (least of all the investigators), doing neuroscience by correlating cortex regions with cognitive activities is extremely clunky at best. Very robust finding confirming this tho, thanks for sharing!

Now that we’re finally moving to the next stage of neuroscience due inscrutable latent systems (aka LLMs), I can’t help but feel some nostalgia. It’s all fun and games until someone makes a lie detection helmet that actually works…
