Description:

Today we begin our coverage of the 2019 NeurIPS conference with Celeste Kidd, Assistant Professor of Psychology at UC Berkeley. In our conversation, we discuss:

  • The research at the Kidd Lab, which is focused on understanding “how people come to know what they know.”
  • Her invited talk “How to Know,” which details the core cognitive systems people use to guide their learning about the world.
  • Why people are curious about some things but not others.
  • How our past experiences and existing knowledge shape our future interests.
  • Why people believe what they believe, and how these beliefs are influenced in one direction or another.
  • How machine learning figures into this equation.
