🚀 We’re thrilled to announce the upcoming AI & Scientific Discovery online seminar! We have an amazing lineup of speakers. This series will dive into how AI is accelerating research, enabling breakthroughs, and shaping the future of research across disciplines. ai-scientific-discovery.github.io

As AI becomes increasingly capable of conducting analyses and following instructions, my prediction is that the role of scientists will increasingly focus on identifying and selecting important problems to work on ("selector"), and effectively evaluating analyses performed by AI ("evaluator").

We are proposing the second workshop on AI & Scientific Discovery at EACL/ACL. The workshop will explore how AI can advance scientific discovery. Please use this Google form to indicate your interest (corrected link): forms.gle/MFcdKYnckNno... More in the 🧵! Please share! #MLSky 🧠

⚡️Ever asked an LLM-as-Marilyn Monroe about the 2020 election? Our paper calls this concept incongruence, common in both AI and how humans create and reason. 🧠Read my blog to learn what we found, why it matters for AI safety and creativity, and what's next: cichicago.substack.com/p/concept-in...

#ACL2025 Poster Session 1 tomorrow 11:00-12:30 Hall 4/5!

Excited to present our work at #ACL2025! Come by Poster Session 1 tomorrow, 11:00–12:30 in Hall X4/X5 — would love to chat!

Prompting is our most successful tool for exploring LLMs, but the term evokes eye-rolls and grimaces from scientists. Why? Because prompting as scientific inquiry has become conflated with prompt engineering. This is holding us back. 🧵and new paper with @ari-holtzman.bsky.social .

When you walk into the ER, you could get a doc: 1. Fresh from a week of not working 2. Tired from working too many shifts @oziadias.bsky.social has been both and thinks that they're different! But can you tell from their notes? Yes we can! Paper @natcomms.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...

🚨 New paper alert 🚨 Ever asked an LLM-as-Marilyn Monroe who the US president was in 2000? 🤔 Should the LLM answer at all? We call these clashes Concept Incongruence. Read on! ⬇️ 1/n 🧵

HypoEval evaluators (github.com/ChicagoHAI/H...) are now incorporated into judges from QuotientAI — check it out at github.com/quotient-ai/...!

1/n 🚀🚀🚀 Thrilled to share our latest work🔥: HypoEval - Hypothesis-Guided Evaluation for Natural Language Generation! 🧠💬📊 There’s a lot of excitement around using LLMs for automated evaluation, but many methods fall short on alignment or explainability — let’s dive in! 🌊

🧑‍⚖️How well can LLMs summarize complex legal documents? And can we use LLMs to evaluate? Excited to be in Albuquerque presenting our paper this afternoon at @naaclmeeting 2025!

🚀🚀🚀Excited to share our latest work: HypoBench, a systematic benchmark for evaluating LLM-based hypothesis generation methods! There is much excitement about leveraging LLMs for scientific hypothesis generation, but principled evaluations are missing - let’s dive into HypoBench together.

1/n You may know that large language models (LLMs) can be biased in their decision-making, but ever wondered how those biases are encoded internally and whether we can surgically remove them?
