🚨 New CHI 2026 Workshop 🚨 PoliSim@CHI 2026: LLM Agent Simulation for Policy

New research from LTI, UMich, & Allen Institute for AI: LLMs don’t just hallucinate – sometimes, they lie. When truthfulness clashes with utility (pleasing users, boosting brands), models often mislead. @nlpxuhui.bsky.social and @maartensap.bsky.social discuss the paper: lti.cmu.edu/news-and-eve...

When interacting with ChatGPT, have you wondered if they would ever "lie" to you? We found that under pressure, LLMs often choose deception. Our new #NAACL2025 paper, "AI-LIEDAR ," reveals models were truthful less than 50% of the time when faced with utility-truthfulness conflicts! 🤯 1/

Reward models for LMs are meant to align outputs with human preferences—but do they accidentally encode dialect biases? 🤔 Excited to share our paper on biases against African American Language in reward models, accepted to #NAACL2025 Findings! 🎉 Paper: arxiv.org/abs/2502.12858 (1/10)

We are getting closer to have agents operating in the real physical world. However, can we trust frontier models to make embodied decisions 🎮 aligned with human norms 👩‍⚖️ ? With EgoNormia, a 1.8k ego-centric video 🥽 QA benchmark, we show that this is surprisingly challenging!

LLM agents can code—but can they ask clarifying questions? 🤖💬 Tired of coding agents wasting time and API credits, only to output broken code? What if they asked first instead of guessing? 🚀 (New work led by Sanidhya Vijay: www.linkedin.com/in/sanidhya-...)

Excited to share that I'm joining All Hands AI (www.all-hands.dev) this summer as a research intern! 🚀 AI agents are becoming incredibly powerful, but their true potential lies in how they interact with and assist humans in meaningful ways.

I like the BlueSky approach to "verification". If you own a domain, you can make a DNS record to turn it into your BlueSky handle! bsky.social/about/blog/4...

Hello, Bluesky! Happy to be scrolling the friendly skies with you. Follow for news and updates on LTI folks and their trailblazing research. #AI #NLP #ML #computerscience

some little bluesky tips 🦋 your blocks, likes, lists, and just about everything except chats are PUBLIC you can pin custom feeds; i like quiet posters, best of follows, mutuals, mentions if your chronological feed is overwhelming, you can make and pin make a personal list of "unmissable" people
