For both humans and machines, the essence of learning is to pinpoint which components in its information processing pipeline are responsible for an error in its output, a challenge that is known as ‘credit assignment’. It has long been assumed that credit assignment is best solved by backpropagation, which is also the foundation of modern machine learning. Here, we set out a fundamentally different principle on credit assignment called ‘prospective configuration’. In prospective configuration, the network first infers the pattern of neural activity that should result from learning, and then the synaptic weights are modified to consolidate the change in neural activity. We demonstrate that this distinct mechanism, in contrast to backpropagation, (1) underlies learning in a well-established family of models of cortical circuits, (2) enables learning that is more efficient and effective in many contexts faced by biological organisms and (3) reproduces surprising patterns of neural activity and behavior observed in diverse human and rat learning experiments.

This is a talk I gave at Develop Digital in 2020. It tried to dig into what a layout is silently communicating to a player and how we, as designers, can take control of this conversation to make sure players get the experience we intend.

Here's a dump of Lone Echo 2 artwork I made way back in 2018/19! I came onto the project never designing anything scifi before so it's pretty hard looking at some of the older pieces in here... so many things I would do differently these days. Either way I thought id post up a bit of everything, hopefully you enjoy.
