Great talk today by @tedunderwood.com at the UMSI computational social science / data science seminar on the need for benchmarks for measuring historical authenticity in LLM responses

To ensure compliance w peer-review policies, ICML has removed 795 reviews (1% of total) by reviewers who used LLMs when they explicitly agreed to not. Consequently, 497 papers (2% of all submissions) of these (reciprocal) reviewers have been desk rejected Details in blog post 👇

Deadline extended! Get your direct submissions in by March 8 AoE

Potato v2.2.0 is out! The biggest release yet: 9 new annotation schemas, pluggable export system, MACE integration, 55 survey instruments, and much more. github.com/davidjurgens...

Students are using AI to ask ask questions and do homework, and now professors are using AI to respond and grade (www.professorfeynman.com ). Engagement metrics and grades are way up—the dean is going to love this!

We've alllllmost gotten all the Jan26 ARR reviews in, but I'm still trying to track down new emergency reviewers for papers on the following topics: 1) agents 2) jailbreaking 3) coding 4) RL 5) reasoning 6) LLM for finance 7) AMR 8) alignment If you can review any (in next 24-48h) please DM me 🙏🙏🙏

How should AI technically and ethically adapt to who each of us are as individuals? How should we even model *identity*? Is there such as thing as too much personalization? Excited to co-organize this workshop on questions of Identity & AI. Lots of submission options, so come join the conversation

Excited to recruit a 🚨 postdoc 🚨 for projects on #AI and evolving scientific practice, norms, and impact! Interdisciplinary work across science of science, philosophy of science, math with creative Purdue/Argonne/CMU/Chicago/Princeton collaborators! *pls repost*! careers.purdue.edu/job/Postdoc-...

Deadline approaching! Identity-aware AI workshop #LREC2026 identity-aware-ai.github.io, there is time until Feb 20th to submit a short or full paper, with many non-archival options too!

This major release of my lab's annotation tool, Potato 2.0, was a long time in the making but I'm really excited by all the new features (and quality of life improvements). If you're doing data annotation of any kind, check it out. Need any other features? We'd love to hear from you too!

Internship opportunity! Please share! 📣 I'm looking to hire an intern in human-centered NLP for the agents team at Together AI. Come work on frontier AI systems that tackle complex agentic tasks! Research direction is open and looking to publish in NLP and HCI venues!

The second new class I'm teaching is a very experimental graduate level seminar in CSE: "Building Small Language Models". I taught the grad level NLP class last semester (so fun!) but students wanted more—which of these new ideas work, and which work for SLMs? jurgens.people.si.umich.edu/CSE598-004/

Excited to teach two new courses this fall. The first is an upper-div undergrad course in the School of Information on Applied GenAI. Here, we're thinking about what we can do/build/analyze/design if we treat LLMs like a powerful black box library. jurgens.people.si.umich.edu/SI405/

I've seen this message and similar echos for other writing, and I want strongly push back on this narrative. It's not that you shouldn't use ChatGPT but that you shouldn't *use ChatGPT to write it for you*. ChatGPT—and AI in general—is not a monolith. How you use it matters.

After a multi-year effort led by my brilliant PhD advisee Ruth Bagley, this exciting work documenting large-scale racial disparities in media representations of gun violence is out today in PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

I've been really impressed with the presentation modalities from NotebookLM. My former student @leczhang.bsky.social used it to make this really cool illustration of our SPRIG paper arxiv.org/abs/2410.14826 and I was blown away by the layout and design. Here's the illustration of the genetic alg...

When we ask an LLM to “reason” about an ethical question, what kind of reasoning are we really invoking? Our #EMNLP2025 paper with Mohna Chakraborty and Lu Wang explores how value-grounded prompting can move moral reasoning beyond surface pattern-matching.

What if a single model could recognize an author's writing style no matter what language they wrote in? 🌍✍️ Our new #EMNLP2025 paper explores multilingual authorship representation, showing how training across 36 languages can sharpen stylistic signals and reduce topic bias. 👇🧵
