Extremely excited to announce that I will be joining @UTAustin @UTCompSci in August 2025 as an Assistant Professor! 🎉 I’m looking forward to continuing to develop AI agents that interact/communicate with people, each other, and the multimodal world. I’ll be recruiting PhD…

🥳 Gap year update: I'll be joining @allen_ai/@UW for 1 year (Sep2025-Jul2026 -> @JHUCompSci) & looking forward to working with amazing folks there, incl. @RanjayKrishna, @HannaHajishirzi, Ali Farhadi. 🚨 I’ll also be recruiting PhD students for my group at @JHUCompSci for Fall…

Life update: I’m excited to share that I’ll be starting as faculty at the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems(@mpi_sws_) this Fall!🎉 I’ll be recruiting PhD students in the upcoming cycle, as well as research interns throughout the year: lasharavichander.github.io/contact.html

Life Update: I will join @UTiSchool as an Assistant Professor in Fall 2026 and will continue my work on LLM, HCI, and Computational Social Science. I'm building a new lab on Human-Centered AI Systems and will be hiring PhD students in the coming cycle!

🎉 Our paper, GenerationPrograms, which proposes a modular framework for attributable text generation, has been accepted to @COLM_conf! GenerationPrograms produces a program that executes to text, providing an auditable trace of how the text was generated and major gains on…

I’ll be at #ICML2025 this week to present ScPO: 📌 Wednesday, July 16th, 11:00 AM-1:30 PM 📍East Exhibition Hall A-B, E-2404 Stop by or reach out to chat about improving reasoning in LLMs, self-training, or just tips about being on the job market next cycle! 😃

Overdue job update -- I am now: - A Visiting Scientist at @schmidtsciences, supporting AI safety and interpretability - A Visiting Researcher at the Stanford NLP Group, working with @ChrisGPotts I am so grateful I get to keep working in this fascinating and essential area, and…

🎉 Glad to see our work on handling conflicting & noisy evidence and ambiguous queries in RAG systems (via a new benchmark & multi-agent debate method) has been accepted to #COLM2025 @COLM_conf!! 🇨🇦 Congrats to Han on leading this effort. More details in the thread below and…

🥳 Excited to share our work -- Retrieval-Augmented Generation with Conflicting Evidence -- on addressing conflict in RAG due to ambiguity, misinformation, and noisy/irrelevant evidence has been accepted to @COLM_conf #COLM2025! Our new benchmark RAMDocs proves challenging for…

🚨Introducing Video-RTS: Resource-Efficient RL for Video Reasoning with Adaptive Video TTS! While RL-based video reasoning with LLMs has advanced, the reliance on large-scale SFT with extensive video data and long CoT annotations remains a major bottleneck. Video-RTS tackles…

I've officially joined Meta Superintelligence Labs (MSL) org in the Bay Area. I'll be working on critical aspects of pre-training, synthetic data and RL for the next generation of models. Humbled and eager to contribute to the quest for superintelligence. @AIatMeta

🎉 Very excited to see TaCQ — our work on task-conditioned mixed-precision quantization that draws on interpretability methods — accepted to @COLM_conf #COLM2025 with strong scores and a nice shoutout from the AC! Kudos to Hanqi on leading this effort!

🎉 Excited to share that TaCQ (Task-Circuit Quantization), our work on knowledge-informed mixed-precision quantization, has been accepted to #COLM2025 @COLM_conf! Happy to see that TaCQ was recognized with high scores and a nice shoutout from the AC – big thanks to @EliasEskin…

🥳Our work UTGen & UTDebug on teaching LLMs to generate effective unit tests & improve code debugging/generation has been accepted to @COLM_conf #COLM2025! Stay tuned for more exciting results -- e.g., using 32B-scale UTGen models to improve debugging with frontier models like…

Some personal news ✨ In September, I’m joining @ucl as Associate Professor of Computational Linguistics. I’ll be building a lab, directing the MSc programme, and continuing research at the intersection of language, cognition, and AI. 🧵

Welcome to UNC @hyunji_amy_lee, looking forward to continuing to work together! 🎉🎉

🎉 Yay, welcome @hyunji_amy_lee -- super excited to have you join us as a postdoc! 🤗 Welcome to our MURGe-Lab + @unc_ai_group + @unccs family & the beautiful Research Triangle area -- looking forward to the many fun+impactful collaborations together 🔥

🥳Excited to share that I’ll be joining @unccs as postdoc this fall. Looking forward to work with @mohitban47 & amazing students at @unc_ai_group. I'll continue working on retrieval, aligning knowledge modules with LLM's parametric knowledge, and expanding to various modalities.

🎉 Yay, welcome to the @unc @unccs @unc_ai_group family and beautiful Research Triangle area, Jason! Looking forward to the many exciting collaborations on these topics! 🔥 PS. If you are applying for fall2026 PhD admissions, make sure to apply to new faculty member Jason 👇

🥳 Excited to share that I’ll be joining the CS Department at UNC-Chapel Hill (@unccs @unc_ai_group) as an Assistant Professor starting Fall 2026! Before that, I’ll be working at Ai2 Prior (@allen_ai @Ai2Prior) and UW (@uwcse) on multimodal understanding and generation.

📢Accepted by #ICCV! Check out our new paper, SAME: a State-Adaptive Mixture of Experts for unified language-guided visual navigation. Key highlights: 1️⃣ Unifies diverse navigation tasks (fine/coarse/zero-grained) in a single versatile agent. 2️⃣ Dynamically routes expert…
