We have released #AgentCoMa, an agentic reasoning benchmark where each task requires a mix of commonsense and math to be solved 🧐 LLM agents performing real-world tasks should be able to combine these different types of reasoning, but are they fit for the job? 🤔 🧵⬇️

Thrilled to share our new preprint on Reinforcement Learning for Reverse Engineering (RLRE) 🚀 We demonstrate that human preferences can be reverse engineered effectively by pipelining LLMs to optimise upstream preambles via reinforcement learning 🧵⬇️

I’ll be presenting Meta-Reasoning Improves Tool Use in Large Language Models at #NAACL25 tomorrow Thursday May 1st from 2 until 3.30pm in Hall 3! Come check it out and have a friendly chat if you’re interested in LLM reasoning and tools 🙂 #NAACL

Excited to share our ICLR and NAACL papers! Please come and say hi, we're super friendly :)

New work led by @mercyxu.bsky.social Check out the poster presentation on Sunday 27th April in Singapore!

I really enjoyed my MLST chat with Tim @neuripsconf.bsky.social about the research we've been doing on reasoning, robustness and human feedback. If you have an hour to spare and are interested in AI robustness, it may be worth a listen 🎧 Check it out at youtu.be/DL7qwmWWk88?...

ACL Rolling Review and the EMNLP PCs are seeking input on the current state of reviewing for *CL conferences. We would love to get your feedback on the current process and how it could be improved. To contribute your ideas and opinions, please follow this link! forms.office.com/r/P68uvwXYqfemn

Do LLMs need rationales for learning from mistakes? 🤔 When LLMs learn from previous incorrect answers, they typically observe corrective feedback in the form of rationales explaining each mistake. In our new preprint, we find these rationales do not help, in fact they hurt performance! 🧵

Announcing the release of Common Corpus 2. The largest fully open corpus for pretraining comes back better than ever: 2 trillion tokens with document-level licensing, provenance and language information. huggingface.co/datasets/Ple...

I noticed a lot of starter packs skewed towards faculty/industry, so I made one of just NLP & ML students: go.bsky.app/vju2ux Students do different research, go on the job market, and recruit other students. Ping me and I'll add you!

We are hiring 6 lecturers at @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social to work on AI, ML, graphics, vision, quantum and software engineering. This includes researchers working on LLMs, NLP, generative models and text applications. Deadline 6 Jan. @imperial-nlp.bsky.social www.imperial.ac.uk/jobs/search-...

I'm excited to share a new paper: "Mastering Board Games by External and Internal Planning with Language Models" storage.googleapis.com/deepmind-med... (also soon to be up on Arxiv, once it's been processed there)

We’re looking for an intern to join our SmolLM team! If you’re excited about training LLMs and building high-quality datasets, we’d love to hear from you. 🤗 US: apply.workable.com/huggingface/... EMEA: apply.workable.com/huggingface/...

Spot-on thread by that we should all read (and hope our reviewers will read)

I thought to create a Starter Pack for people working on LLM Agents. Please feel free to self-refer as well. go.bsky.app/LUrLWXe #LLMAgents #LLMReasoning

I recently wrote down 68 short summaries of ML and NLP papers. The aim is to give a quick overview of the core research contributions, without all the packaging. www.marekrei.com/blog/68-summ...

Hi Bluesky, would like to introduce myself 🙂 I am PhD-ing at Imperial College under @marekrei.bsky.social’s supervision. I am broadly interested in LLM/LVLM reasoning & planning 🤖 (here’s our latest work arxiv.org/abs/2411.04535) Do reach out if you are interested in these (or related) topics!

Welcome to Bluesky to more of our NLP researchers at Imperial!! Looking forward to following everyone's work on here. To follow us all click 'follow all' in the starter pack below go.bsky.app/Bv5thAb

any kind folks from #nlp #mlsky would be willing to help with emergency reviews for ARR Oct 🥹? pls send me a msg 🙏

The NLP labs starter pack is here! go.bsky.app/LKGekew Let us know if you want to be added!

get it while it’s hot #ai go.bsky.app/Pxcnfu6

Thank you for the repost @imperial-nlp.bsky.social 🙂
