The Bayesian brain hypothesis, as formalized by the free-energy principle, is ascendant in cognitive science. But, how does the Bayesian brain obtain prior beliefs? Veissière and colleagues argue that sociocultural interaction is one important source. We offer a complementary model in which "interoceptive self-inference" guides the estimation of expected uncertainty both in ourselves and in our social conspecifics.
贝叶斯大脑假说,如其被自由能原理形式化的那样,在认知科学中占主导地位。但是,贝叶斯大脑如何获得先验信念呢?Veissière 及其同事认为,社会文化互动是一个重要来源。我们提供了一个补充模型,其中“内感受自我推断”指导对自身和社会同物种的预期不确定性的估计。
