    My paper on hierarchical plans is out in Cognition!🎉 tldr: We ask participants to generate hierarchical plans in a programming game. People prefer to reuse beyond what standard accounts predict, which we formalize as induction of a grammar over actions. authors.elsevier.com/a/1kBQr2Hx2x...

    Are people bad randomizers in general, or only in some contexts? In our new paper, now in press at Cognition, we found that 'socializing' randomization — in this case by pitting people against each other in a live game of Battleship — dramatically improved randomization behavior 👇🏼

    There's one Team Hoi game that's still confined in the Amiga hardware environment: a small-scale, cogwheel-based puzzler called Cognition. I think @reiniervanvliet.eurosky.social doesn't have the source files of it anymore, but it might be possible via disassembly… archive.org/details/cogn...

    Me with a copy of Sanibel by @elizhargrave.bsky.social that I bought on Sanibel by the lighthouse at Sanibel. Good game, and one I think I’ll use for a Game Day in my Cognition of Gaming class. (Also, great vacation spot!)

    My open access article "Hello, Worlds: A Ludic Theory of Cognition" is out today in Games & Culture 🎉 Drawing on a wide array of sources, I make the case that cognition is inherently ludic & enactive, meaning both game & world are brought forth through play. 🔗 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

    God I am like. Still in love with the idea of Lobotomy Corporation's Cognition Filter. What a fucking cool way to have an in-game reason for the game having the art style that it does.

    These are entirely invented definitions of "solve" and "play". A chess-playing computer plays chess. It's very straightforward. All it needs to do is play (not solve) a good game. It doesn't matter how it does it. Cognition is the same thing: all that matters is its presented capability.

  • Eric Maugendre about data @[email protected]Mastodon · Sep 18, 2026

    AI can deliver a lot to users, on demand. I like to keep the part of ´Without even thinking about it.´ I choose to take that experts have built and incorporated a cognition about their domain. I wonder if there are two fields of production: one for manly play and one for careful computation. As you know AI play actively blocks learning: http://data.yt/kit/how-ai-is-made.html#ai-damages-intelligence #computation #AIRisks #cognition #learning

    Cognition Method I loved the vibe of this game! It has a sort of Portal puzzle feel, but is inspired by 2001: A Space Odyssey so it's just deeper & darker. I'll be digging into it more for sure! store.steampowered.com/app/1636620/...

    A 20-week study contrasted changes in cognitive performance between and electrical brain activity between groups of college students playing action or strategy video games (1 hr/day, n=33 and 35, respectively). Both groups had improved spatial attention, working memory, and executive function. Improvements in spatial attention and working memory were greater for the action game players. Summary:…

    COGNITION METHOD sure looks neat, with screenshots that pull the brutalist elements of Control to mind, but as a puzzle game instead of a combat-based one. Not a huge fan of them apparently using AI for localization, though!
