Everyone uses LLMs to annotate data or evaluate models in their research. But how can we convince others (readers, collaborators, reviewers!!!) that LLMs are reliable? 🤖 Here’s a simple (and low-effort) solution: show the LLM is a *comparable alternative annotator* ✅

Very excited to share that an advanced version of Gemini Deep Think is the first to have achieved gold-medal level in the International Mathematical Olympiad! 🏆, solving five out of six problems perfectly, as verified by the IMO organizers! It’s been a wild run to lead this…
Super thrilled to share that our AI has has now reached silver medalist level in Math at #imo2024 (1 point away from 🥇)! Since Jan, we now not only have a much stronger version of #AlphaGeometry, but also an entirely new system called #AlphaProof, capable of solving many more…
tried ds*y again for another project. I can understand why people like it; instead of writing free-form system and user prompts and templates, you can write code and just rely on it. this part makes sense (though I think there's extra juice in customizing templates) however, ...

Do laypeople "fall" for jargon-based explanations? No, not really
Have experience working on a system paper involving LLMs (any software that embeds an LLM call), and trying to publish it at HCI venues? We want to hear from you! See below 👇
🚨Calling all HCI researchers!—Have you authored a paper involving an LLM-integrated system over the past two years? Care to speak about your experiences with the publication process? 📃 DM or email me—we are running a study around this topic, and would love to hear from you.
Huan and I are looking for a postdoc to join us on agent research (broadly defined: planning, reasoning, safety, memory, continual learning, etc.). If you have a strong record in this space, drop us an email with CV! Retweet appreciated.
🚨 Postdoc Hiring: I am looking for a postdoc to work on rigorously evaluating and advancing the capabilities and safety of computer-use agents (CUAs), co-advised with @ysu_nlp @osunlp. We welcome strong applicants with experience in CUAs, long-horizon reasoning/planning,…
Creativity has been linked to better learning—but why? We find that both rely on associative thinking: the ability to form new connections. nature.com/articles/s4153…
Happy to share that FlawedFictions is now accepted in CoLM 2025 (@COLM_conf)! Looking forward to presenting this in Montreal later this year. Huge thanks to my wonderful collaborators @melaniesclar and @tsvetshop.
📢 New Paper! Tired 😴 of reasoning benchmarks full of math & code? In our work we consider the problem of reasoning for plot holes in stories -- inconsistencies in a storyline that break the internal logic or rules of a story’s world 🌎 W/ @melaniesclar, and @tsvetshop 1/n
🎉 Excited to announce that the 4th HCI+NLP workshop will be co-located with @EMNLP in Suzhou, China! 🌍📍 Join us to explore the intersection of human-computer interaction and NLP. 🧵 1/
