I am co-organizing an incredible workshop about using LLMs for well-being in the context of HRI 🔥 more info below 👇 📢 Keynote speakers: @rcalo, @_jessethomason_, @brain_on_dance 🌴 Hosted at IEEE RO-MAN in beautiful Pasadena, California 🔗 lnkd.in/dt-V68DU Join us!
End of year outing for the GLAMOR ✨ Lab!
It's true, and the need for single-modality ablations during model building and dataset curation extends beyond classification tasks into actions too. A few years ago we found that many "embodied" agents end up either ignoring language OR ignoring vision. arxiv.org/abs/1811.00613

Localization in LLMs is often mentioned. But do localization methods actually localize correctly? In our #NAACL2024 paper, we (w/ @_jessethomason_, @robinomial) develop two benchmarking ways to directly evaluate how well 5 existing methods can localize memorized data in LLMs.
LLMs alone aren't that reliable. Search is on for ways to combine them with other software. I describe a couple of examples here, including work by @_jessethomason_ , @Ishika_S_ , Ruzica Piskac and @scottjshapiro open.substack.com/pub/robots4the…
LLMs can act as planners in simple settings, but struggle in complex ones, e.g. multi-agent, where planner has to track agent-specific states. TwoStep leverages strengths of LLMs & classical planners to produce faster, shorter, and guaranteed plans! glamor-usc.github.io/twostep 🧵👇

A model that reports predictions without introspection on how OOD it might be is not acceptable in a human-AI team. The ReCoVERR algorithm squeezes information out of extratextual modalities like vision during inference to improve such selective prediction arxiv.org/abs/2402.15610

Great article by @davidberreby that highlights the work of GLAMOR Lab's @Ishika_S_ in collaboration with @NVIDIAAI folks like @animesh_garg and continued with funding from @ArmyResearchLab. Upshot: if LLMs tell robots what to do, experts should decide what actually gets done.

Before asking "How to Train Your Robot", ask "for what?" Training and evaluating in similar conditions lets you know the model fit the problem, but what about when the problem space shifts? The Colosseum lays out sim and real perturbations to stress-test learned control policies.

I think I might be a lot less angsty about drivers if there was literally anywhere in town I could go to escape the presence of cars. Every act of using transit, going to a park, shopping, or just walking around involves navigating drivers in two-ton blocks of metal.

Localization in LLMs is often mentioned. But do localization methods actually localize correctly? In our #NAACL2024 paper, we (w/ @_jessethomason_, @robinomial) develop two benchmarking ways to directly evaluate how well 5 existing methods can localize memorized data in LLMs.

I think conference orgs need to set policy for LLMs in experiments. Is NOT using proprietary systems (GPT, Claude, ...) a major concern? Is ONLY using proprietary systems a major concern? In reviews of my papers, and as AC, I've seen both, and it's super unfair to authors.
LLMs alone aren't that reliable. Search is on for ways to combine them with other software. I describe a couple of examples here, including work by @_jessethomason_ , @Ishika_S_ , Ruzica Piskac and @scottjshapiro open.substack.com/pub/robots4the…

Here is my thought on the news about Microsoft and Inflection AI: Nadella hired a toxic manager who abused his people, and dragged out sexual abuse cases to run their new AI division. But I guess hiring a founder of DeepMind is more important than having good leadership.
