🎉 I am extremely excited to announce the biggest news of my career: I will join École Polytechnique @xpolytechnique.bsky.social as an assistant professor in September!
Martin Gubri
@mgubri.bsky.social
Incoming assistant professor at École Polytechnique working on Trustworthy AI Speaking 🇫🇷, English and 🇨🇱 Spanish | he/him https://gubri.eu
Today at #ACL2026, we are presenting out MASEval library for multi-agent system evaluation. @anmolgoel.bsky.social is in San Diego to present poster and live demo! 📍Grand Hall | Session 3: Oral/Posters/Demos B 🕑Sunday 2pm-3.30pm #MultiAgentSystem #AIEvaluation #Python
1/ Evaluating a single agent harness is hard. Evaluating a multi-agent system? Whole different problem. Most eval tools treat the model as the unit of analysis. In multi-agent systems, the system is what matters. That's why we built MASEval 🧵 #AI #Agents #Eval #MultiAgentSystem #LLM
🏆🪩 We just won the best paper award at ICLR'26-CAO with DISCO! I am so proud of my co-authors! Huge congrats to @arubique.bsky.social, Benjamin, and @coallaoh.bsky.social
🪩 Evaluate your LLMs on benchmarks like MMLU at 1% cost. In our new paper, we show that outputs on a small subset of test samples that maximise diversity in model responses are predictive of the full dataset performance. Project page: arubique.github.io/disco-site/ More below 🧵👇
1/ My contract at @parameterlab.bsky.social ended last week, after 2.5 years (since Sept 2023, with some collaboration before). I had the chance to lead research on trustworthy AI for LLMs alongside an incredible group of people. (Neckarfront. All Tübingen researcher have to post it once!)
🎉 Our privacy collapse paper has been accepted at #ACL 2026 (main)! Contextual privacy is fragile: fine-tune an LLM on benign data, and it can overshare personal information. This is silent. Safety suites don't measure contextual privacy, which is a problem now that most applications are agentic.
🚨 Fine-tuning your model to be more helpful or empathetic might be making it less private, without you noticing. In our latest work, we show that benign fine-tuning can silently break contextual privacy in language models while safety & general capabilities appear intact. ⬇️
🌍 We've made LLM watermarking equally robust across all languages we studied, while scaling to 100+ languages! Even sota watermarks can be removed by translating to another language, eg. Tamil. This hits hardest in low-resource languages, where moderation tools are already weak. 🧵
The D&B track now has a larger scope and a new name: Evaluation & Datasets. It focuses on evaluation itself as a scientific object. It is really nice to have somewhere for critical analysis of evaluation and negative results. It was really missing in ML!
The Datasets & Benchmarks track is now "Evaluation and Datasets", with an expanded scope for NeurIPS 2026! Read the call for papers neurips.cc/Conferences/..., and learn more about the changes in our blog post: blog.neurips.cc/2026/03/23/i...
NeurIPS deadline is out! Add the 6th of May to your calendar :)
The NeurIPS 2026 Call for Papers is live: neurips.cc/Conferences/... Abstracts are due May 4, 2026 (AOE), and full papers May 6 (AOE). Please review the handbook neurips.cc/Conferences/... and our Pilot for Strengthening Area Chair Engagement and Calibration blog.neurips.cc/2026/03/23/r...
LLM agents include far more than a model: framework, orchestration, tools, error handling, etc. These harness engineering choices matter, but they're rarely compared. MASEval makes that straightforward. I'm very proud to have supervised its development. Give it a look! ⬇️

If you want to get up to speed on what all the benchmarks mean, I wrote a bunch of digests for the popular ones over on the ngrok blog. Designed for people that are interested but not enough to go read all the papers. ngrok.com/blog/ai-benc...

New paper out!🎉 One of our most surprising findings: fine-tuning an LLM on debugging code has unexpected side-effects on contextual privacy. The model learns from printing variables that internal state are ok to share, then generalises this to social situations🤯 A🧵below👇

🧵 Many hidden gems about LLM benchmark contamination in the GAPERON paper! This French-English model paper has some honest findings about how contamination affects benchmarks (and why no one wants to truly decontaminate their training data) Thread 👇

Our #EMNLP2025 paper Leaky Thoughts 🫗 shows that Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) can unintentionally leak sensitive information hidden in their internal thoughts. 📍 Come chat with Tommaso at our poster on Friday 7th, 10:30–12:00 in Hall C3 📄 aclanthology.org/2025.emnlp-m...

🪩 New paper out! Evaluating large models on benchmarks like MMLU is expensive. DISCO cuts costs by up to 99% while still predicting well performance. 🔍 The trick: use a small subset of samples where models disagree the most. These are the most informative. Join the dance party below 👇

Fantastic new paper by @reeserichardson.bsky.social et al. An enormous amount of work showing the extent of coordinated scientific fraud and involvement of some editors. The number of fraudulent publications grows at a rate far outpacing that of legitimate science. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Today, our article "The entities enabling scientific fraud at scale are large, resilient, and growing rapidly" is finally published in PNAS. I hope that it proves to be a wake-up-call for the whole scientific community. reeserichardson.blog/2025/08/04/a...
📢 New paper out: Does SEO work for LLM-based conversational search? We introduce C-SEO Bench, a benchmark to test if conversational SEO methods actually help. Our finding? They don't. But traditional SEO still works because LLMs favour content already ranked higher in the prompt.

Obtaining calibrated confidence scores from LLMs is hard, especially for black-box models. So, can we maybe predict them directly from the generated text? 🤔 Internship work at Parameter Lab with Martin Gubri, Sangdoo Yun, Hwaran Lee, Seong Joon Oh! arxiv.org/abs/2403.059... [1/6]
