Thrilled to (finally) be able to share our paper: 🐑 Do language models know when they're hallucinating? TL;DR answer: yes! 🔗: arxiv.org/abs/2312.17249, and a🧵 w/ Semantic Machines @MSFTResearch: @ben_vandurme & @adveisner & Chris Kedzie
If you can break your AI problem down, an LLM is the 3D printer that can quickly create modules for your subtasks. No module should bear too much load, as they're all made of cheap plastic. But a 3D printer has countless uses. (Our previous 3D printer was MTurk.)
Dear ACL community, ACL is considering multiple proposals to change its anonymity period policy. It seeks immediate feedback from the community about the proposed changes. Please add your voice until Friday, September 22nd (AOE): aclweb.org/portal/content… #NLProc

🧵 A recap of JHU CS at #ACL2023! (1/10) Congrats to @DanielKhashabi & team for their Outstanding Paper Award for "The Tail the Wagging the Dog," an investigation into benchmarking social bias in datasets. Read more here: arxiv.org/pdf/2210.10040…
We tried a whole bunch of sensible ways to improve large language model decoding, and this was the one that actually worked. Virtual poster today, Wed, 11am ET at #ACL2023. virtual2023.aclweb.org/paper_P511.html

Hi folks at #ACL2023 Do you know someone interested in PhD programs in #nlproc? We'd love to have them apply to Johns Hopkins! Our growing @jhuclsp faculty (almost 30!) now include @DanielKhashabi and @anjalie_f clsp.jhu.edu/apply-for-phd/…
Q: Does my LM leak probability onto infinite strings? A: For RNNs and PFSAs you need to test, but Transformers always generate EOS in finite time (prob=1). 🤔First we need to formalize the question… cs.jhu.edu/~jason/papers/… #ACL2023 poster Tue 11am w/@leoduw @ryandcotterell et al
Remember "Task-Oriented Dialogue as Dataflow Synthesis"? (Microsoft Semantic Machines microsoft.com/en-us/research…) Here's our NL generation formalism: Rules for controllability + LM for fluent choices. An #ACL2023 take on Knight & Hatzivassiloglou (1995), Langkilde & Knight (1998).

RIP Daniel Dennett, a giant of philosophy (and also literally v. tall). I really enjoyed reading his work, and had the pleasure of meeting him at a few conferences in a past life as an aspiring philosopher. Philosophy of mind is a richer field thanks to him.
I am incredibly honored to receive a Glushko Dissertation Prize! A huge thank-you goes to: - My dissertation advisors, @tallinzen and @paul_smolensky, for being incredibly supportive throughout my PhD - (continued in next tweet) 1/2
The Cognitive Science Society is thrilled to announce the winners of the 2024 Glushko Dissertation Prize! 🏆 Let’s meet the brilliant minds behind groundbreaking research in Cognitive Science 🧵👇

@deliprao As a beneficiary of a H1B decades ago when the system was less random, and as a contributor to research and education in the USA since then, this is so sad. Bringing together US and foreign researchers made US science and technology strength, let's not destroy it!
If this were a science paper, you would expect a country that picks its science workforce at random as a “weak baseline” and a leading nation like the US to actively experiment towards state-of-the-art, or at least beat the baseline. Not providing a guaranteed path for…
H1B lottery ❌ It was less than a 1 in 3 chance, but sucks anyway!
The US would be much stronger if it were more welcoming of talented people to come, work, and stay here. My parents were just barely able to immigrate here (bringing me with them). Had things turned out slightly differently, I would not be here today.

GPT-2 (2019) vs. GPT-4 (2024) look how beautifully original gpt-2 is! it's like comparing gpt's poetic child drawings vs. corporate emails from middle age.
@tdietterich @arxiv arxiv.org/abs/2402.04607 "We examined 114 authors in our dataset whose Google Scholar profiles exhibit highly irregular patterns, we find that preprint servers i.e. arXiv, Authorea, OSF, and ResearchGate accounted for a sizable proportion of their non-self citations"
Ok I'm convinced I was wrong. Updated: "GenAI is the class of structured prediction problems in which the output is natural." (No clue what "natural" is, but def it includes text, images, code, video, speech, molecules, DNA, etc. and probably not parse trees or bounding boxes.)
Convince me I'm wrong: Generative AI is the new name for structured prediction. An interviewer asked for a def of GenAI & offhand: "an AI system that generates a complex output at once (vs a single prediction)" I later realized that's ≈identical to the def of SP I'd give ~2005
@swabhz "You might have misread this section: It's meant to be 'limitations', not 'imitations'"
Sorry to hear about the passing of Daniel Kahneman. His work on the System 1/System 2 distinction influenced our work on meta-learning, especially in the age of exploring new models of computation as neural-architecture design, then as neurosymbolic program synthesis. RIP 😢
Over my career, I've served on 53 Ph.D. dissertation committees. Five of the students have been named "Michael". There was also a "Mykel" and a "Michail". Homophily, you've gone too far.
A distinguishing ambition of ML research: "We want AI agents that can discover like we can, not which contain what we have discovered. Building in our discoveries only makes it harder to see how the discovering process can be done." From Rich Sutton's "Bitter Lesson".
