Whither symbols in the era of advanced neural networks?
Thomas L. Griffiths, Brenden M. Lake, R. Thomas McCoy +2
Some of the strongest evidence that human minds should be thought about in terms of symbolic systems has been the way they combine ideas, produce novelty, and learn quickly. We arg…
Using Reinforcement Learning to Train Large Language Models to Explain Human Decisions
Jian-Qiao Zhu, Hanbo Xie, Dilip Arumugam +2
A central goal of cognitive modeling is to develop models that not only predict human behavior but also provide insight into the underlying cognitive mechanisms. While neural netwo…
Language Models Trained to do Arithmetic Predict Human Risky and Intertemporal Choice
Jian-Qiao Zhu, Haijiang Yan, Thomas L. Griffiths
The observed similarities in the behavior of humans and Large Language Models (LLMs) have prompted researchers to consider the potential of using LLMs as models of human cognition.…
Recovering Mental Representations from Large Language Models with Markov Chain Monte Carlo
Jian-Qiao Zhu, Haijiang Yan, Thomas L. Griffiths
Simulating sampling algorithms with people has proven a useful method for efficiently probing and understanding their mental representations. We propose that the same methods can b…
