The ABSOLUTE best thing that can happen at a research jam: Jekaterina Novikova @j-novikova-nlp.bsky.social offering herself as a mentor for the community!

This paper got accepted to ICLR 2025!

SUPER thrilled that our #NAACL2025 paper got the runnerup BEST paper award 😍😍🏆🏆🏆🚀🚀🚀 We show that people rely 30% more on LLMs when they use emphatic expressions (e.g "Sure, happy to help") even though the answer is wrong, and 10% more when the task involves math

Following release of our recent work, we have spent considerable time engaging with lmarena.ai over last week. The organizers had concerns about the correctness of our work on the reliability of chatbot arena rankings.
