Happy to share that I’m presenting 3 research projects at AIES 2025 🎉 1️⃣Gender bias over-representation in AI bias research 👫 2️⃣Stable Diffusion's skin tone bias 🧑🏻🧑🏽🧑🏿 3️⃣Limitations of human oversight in AI hiring 👤🤖 Let's chat if you’re at AIES or read below/reach out for details! #AIES25 #AcademicSky

🚨New paper: Reward Models (RMs) are used to align LLMs, but can they be steered toward user-specific value/style preferences? With EVALUESTEER, we find even the best RMs we tested exhibit their own value/style biases, and are unable to align with a user >25% of the time. 🧵

🚨New Paper: LLM developers aim to align models with values like helpfulness or harmlessness. But when these conflict, which values do models choose to support? We introduce ConflictScope, a fully-automated evaluation pipeline that reveals how models rank values under conflict. (📷 xkcd)

Honored to be promoted to Associate Professor at the University of Washington! Grateful to my brilliant mentees, students, collaborators, mentors & @techpolicylab.bsky.social for advancing research in AI & Ethics together—and for the invaluable academic freedom to keep shaping trustworthy AI.

🔗 Paper: aclanthology.org/2025.naacl-l... Work done with amazing collaborators @isaacslaughter.bsky.social, @kyrawilson.bsky.social, @aylincaliskan.bsky.social, and @monadiab77.bsky.social! Catch our Oral presentation at Ballroom B, Thursday, May 1st, 14:00-15:30 pm!📷✨

Excited to announce our #NAACL2025 Oral paper! 🎉✨ We carried out the largest systematic study so far to map the links between upstream choices, intrinsic bias, and downstream zero-shot performance across 131 CLIP Vision-language encoders, 26 datasets, and 55 architectures!

🗞️ Hot off the press! 🗞️ @aylincaliskan.bsky.social and I wrote a blog post about how to make resume screening with AI more equitable based findings from our work presented at AIES in 2024. Major takeaways ⬇️ (1/6) www.brookings.edu/articles/gen...

UW’s @techpolicylab.bsky.social and I invite applications for a 2-year Postdoctoral Researcher position in "AI Alignment with Ethical Principles" focusing on language technologies, societal impact, and tech policy. Kindly share! apply.interfolio.com/162834 Priority review deadline: 3/28/2025
