The Warren Center for Network & Data Sciences
@WarrenCntrPenn
A research center @PennEngineers, working to foster research and innovation in interconnected social, economic and technological systems.
Professor Cary Coglianese joins @BLaw's podcast to discuss how federal courts are responding to the Supreme Court's decision tamping down on nationwide injunctions. penncareylaw.news/40Ug5wp
@PennEngineers Professor @Lee_BenjaminC discusses how AI growth is reshaping energy needs and how smaller data centers may help. cbsn.ws/3IQLycB #AIInfrastructure
If you received an email titled "[NeurIPS 2025] Rebuttal will begin in a few days" and submitted multiple papers to NeurIPS, please take a minute to participate in our author ranking experiment (thank NeurIPS for this!). This helps us collect more data to inform better AI…
Amen. We're doing a lot to bring AI into the curriculum at @wharton. I'm rethinking my own courses from scratch. But this is a deep question about the future of business education, where we could benefit from engagement with our peers.
We are looking for a Research Coordinator! Come to Penn to do research with us! my.spsp.org/Career-Center/…
prof-g (@robertghrist) is teaching the Artificial Intelligence course at the Engineering Summer Academy at Penn. Students are now hard at work on their final projects. @PennEngineers @ESEatPenn #AIClass #SummerAcademy
Great and comprehensive tutorial on jailbreaking and the threats for agentic AI systems in both digital and physical worlds. By @HamedSHassani, @aminkarbasi and @AlexRobey23. Strongly recommend to check out the website: jailbreak-tutorial.github.io
On Monday, I'll be presenting a tutorial on jailbreaking LLMs + the security of AI agents with @HamedSHassani and @aminkarbasi at ICML. I'll be in Vancouver all week -- send me a DM if you'd like to chat about jailbreaking, AI agents, robots, distillation, or anything else!
A collaborative study by @WarrenCntrPenn affiliate Dolores Albarracín and @AnnenbergPenn Research Associate Prof. Man-pui Sally Chan suggests that #AI can facilitate theory- and evidence-based message selection for government and public health campaigns. penntoday.upenn.edu/news/ai-used-r…

If you are interested in safety/security jailbreaking of LLMs, defenses against them, and how the safety issues become more complicated when we design agentic workflows, this tutorial by @HamedSHassani, @aminkarbasi, @AlexRobey23 is highly recommended
“I talked to a lot of kids, [and] I asked them why they’re using AI instead of putting in their own effort, and they just don’t believe they can do better because they have lost that sense of accomplishment,” said @WarrenCntrPenn affiliate @hamsabastani. marketplace.org/story/2025/07/…

"How Walmart is looking to redefine itself to high-income e-commerce shoppers" I can’t tell whether Walmart’s current shift toward courting high-income e-commerce shoppers stems from strategic overconfidence or a fundamental misreading of their customer base -- but either way,…
@PennEngineers and @allen_ai developed CoSyn, a tool that helps open-source AI models understand complex images like nutrition labels and math problems. bit.ly/3GK5WM5 @CIS_Penn #ComputerVision

Omw to Vancouver for our workshop. Come check out the amazing talks, posters, and panel.
MOSS is happening this Saturday (7/19) at West Ballroom B, Vancouver Center! We are excited to have an amazing set of talks, posters, and panel discussions on the insights from and potential of small-scale analyses. Hope to see a lot of you there! 💡
Professor Coglianese’s essay in Science draws on a recent report he coauthored with Cynthia Giles, entitled “Third-Party Auditing Cannot Guarantee Carbon Offset Credibility,” which is available online in the Penn Carey Law SSRN working paper series. penncareylaw.news/3IwZJUh
🗣️ What Would CCB Say? AI can scrape the web in seconds—but it can’t create novel algorithms. Tools like ChatGPT speed up the grunt work, but real innovation? Still human. Got AI Q's for our MSE-AI Online Program Director, Chris Callison-Burch? Drop them below ⬇️
Penn Engineering Professors @Lee_BenjaminC, Lei Gu and Troy Olsson showcased technologies in energy, AI, and computing at the PA Energy & Innovation Summit. #EnergyInnovation @PennEngAI
