Similar polarization that exists among users (a) is reflected among Community Notes users (b). Read the full article cacm.acm.org/opinion/can-...

Re Meta's announcement today: The Community Notes approach can generally be more scalable and robust, yet the current implementation is far from ideal, as @fil.bsky.social and I argue/show here: cacm.acm.org/opinion/can-...

How do people *really* read Wikipedia? 📖 👀 We explored how readers navigate, fall into rabbit holes, and engage with information in a chapter for the ‘Handbook of Computational Social Science,’ edited by @tahayasseri.bsky.social. Stay tuned for the full book! 📚 Preprint: arxiv.org/abs/2501.00939

New Preprint: Our gender-based exploitation doesn’t disappear when working with AI—it can actually become stronger. Our experiments reveal how gender bias persists and even amplifies in human-AI collaboration. with Sepideh Bazazi & Jurgis Karpus arxiv.org/pdf/2412.05214

New preprint: It is often assumed that conspiracy theories stem from a lack of interest in science or education. However, the real issue lies not in disinterest but in a flawed perception that science is the work of extraordinary individuals; geniuses. doi.org/10.31219/osf...
