[HTML][HTML] Dynamic planning in hierarchical active inference

M Priorelli, IP Stoianov - Neural Networks, 2025 - Elsevier
By dynamic planning, we refer to the ability of the human brain to infer and impose motor
trajectories related to cognitive decisions. A recent paradigm, active inference, brings …

Theory is all you need: AI, human cognition, and causal reasoning

T Felin, M Holweg - Strategy Science, 2024 - pubsonline.informs.org
Scholars argue that artificial intelligence (AI) can generate genuine novelty and new
