I study language using tools from cognitive science and neuroscience. I also like snuggles.

Go, @devarda_a! A beautiful and comprehensive study!🔑 finding: behav. measures are ~fully reducible to simple predictors of effort (surprisal, word length+frequency), but for 🧠 measures, LLM embeddings carry additional predictive power, likely capturing aspects of meaning.
