The Hebrew University is very pleased to launch the opening of its brand new faculty housing complex at the Edmond J. Safra Campus (located at the Saul and Joyce Brandman Residence Park).
A new study reveals that the human brain processes spoken language in a sequence that closely mirrors the layered architecture of advanced AI language models. Using electrocorticography data from participants listening to a narrative, the research shows that deeper AI layers align with later brain responses in key language regions such as Broca’s area. The findings challenge traditional rule-based theories of language comprehension and introduce a publicly available neural dataset that sets a new benchmark for studying how the brain constructs meaning.
