Anna Ivanova, assistant professor in the School of Psychology, was recently named to the MIT Technology Review’s 35 Innovators Under 35 for 2024 for her work on language processing in the human brain and artificial intelligence applications.
A key pillar of Ivanova’s work involves large language models (LLM) commonly used in artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT. By approaching the study of LLMs with cognitive science techniques, Ivanova hopes to bring us closer to more functional AIs — and a better understanding of the brain.
“I am happy that, these days, language and human cognition are topics that the world cares deeply about, thanks to recent developments in AI,” says Ivanova, who is also a member of Georgia Tech’s Neuro Next Initiative, a burgeoning interdisciplinary research hub for neuroscience, neurotechnology, and society. “Not only are these topics important, but they are also fun to study.”
