Check out our new project using AI to revolutionize X-ray laser operations, featuring our PhD student Afshin Karimi. We're developing LLMs that analyze technical docs and control data to help operators troubleshoot complex synchrotron and XFEL systems, reducing costly downtime.

Our dataset research collaboration on SHADES was recently covered in WIRED, featuring Margaret Mitchell's interview. Check it out here:

We recently hosted @mxij.me from the IT University of Copenhagen's NLPnorth Lab for our speaker series. He presented a talk titled 'How Language Model Learning Dynamics Shape Social Inclusion.'

If you are interested in the relationship between what is happening INSIDE 🔍 of our models 🤖 and OUTSIDE 🏞️ of our models 🤖, consider submitting to our workshop at COLM. #LLM #NLProc

Happy that our work on multicultural hate meme detection was honored with an Outstanding Paper Award at #NAACL2025! 🏆 This effort was led by @minhducbui.bsky.social during the time he spent as a visiting researcher with us — congratulations, Duc!🚀 #LLMs #NLProc

At SAP Research Day, Prof. Anne Lauscher (@a-lauscher.bsky.social ) delivered a keynote on "Fair and Inclusive Generative AI." She stressed the importance of embedding fairness and diversity in AI design and deployment for positive societal impact. More here: www.bwl.uni-hamburg.de/ueber-die-fa...

Today, in Saarland University at @i2sc.net, @pranav-nlp.bsky.social gave a talk on policy impact, focusing on loopholes in EU AI act and name change policies in academia.

Feature post in Nature for our research: @a-lauscher.bsky.social, Kaiser & Eichler demonstrate LLMs as assistants for particle accelerator optimization. Their study tested 14 models for managing electron accelerator through natural language interactions. More here: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Wie divers sind eigentlich KI-Modelle – und warum spielt das eine Rolle? Unsere Forschung mit @a-lauscher.bsky.social and @carolin-holtermann.bsky.social zeigt, dass vielfältige Trainingsdaten entscheidend für faire und sichere KI-Systeme sind. Mehr dazu: www.uni-hamburg.de/newsroom/for...

📣 Thrilled to announce that the Data Science Lab Hamburg will be presenting three papers at #NAACL2025 in Albuquerque! Our team's research spans ethical concerns in NLP, multilingual hate speech detection, and stereotype assessment in LLMs.
