At the same time, effective AI models such as large language models may also provide insights useful for understanding biological intelligence. This course will explore a broad range of topics in AI, as well as biological principles of intelligence and their implementation in AI. We will review current state-of-the-art AI models, with particular focus on biological plausibility. Course topics may include but are not limited to: biological and artificial memory systems, generative AI models, reinforcement learning algorithms, and evolution of nervous systems and behavioral complexity. There will be weekly discussions and student presentations of recent papers, aiming to explore the potential advantages, complexities, and short-comings of the AI models presented, and how they relate back to biological, psychological, and evolutionary principles.
