Fascinating keynote by Leyla Isik (Leyla Isik @lisik.bsky.social) arguing we See Social Interactions in vision, distinct from the “theory of mind” network #CCN2024

Can NN vision models explain our visual perception of social interactions? Leyla Isik at #CCN2024 on the need for relational mechanisms in neural network models to account for social vision.
