T. Hagendorff, research group leader at IRIS3D Uni Stuttgart, has uncovered that LLMs, such as GPT-4, exhibit emergent deception abilities. Published in @PNAS, this study highlights that these models can understand and utilize deception strategies. doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2…

The IRIS team was at #CyberValleyDays and made many new, valuable contacts, like meeting J. Zegel #MWKStuttgart. The event provided a great opportunity to connect with experts and like-minded individuals. It was a fantastic day that significantly expanded the team's network.

"Evaluating Behavior in #LanguageModels: A Looming Replication Crisis? "Laurène Vaugrante showed at the IRIS colloquium that various prompt-enhancement techniques, such as "chain of thought reasoning" do not give performance boosts as one would expect from the previous literature

“How unfair is #ArtificialIntelligence ?”🎲🎲Our SRFIRIS co-spokesperson, Prof. @ststaab #universityofstuttgart, will lecture on this exciting topic on 26.07.24, 19:30, at the Kunstverein Ludwigsburg. Cordial invitation to all interested parties to this lecture (held in german).

On 31.07. our Colloquium took place. Hongyu Chen talked about the role of the author analysis (AP) task in NLP and the inherent bias of AP models (topical bias). This brought up the reflection on the issue of demographic categorization, which usually leads to potential biases.

At the recent DGPs psychology conference we (Prof. Maria Wirzberger, Dr. Cornelia Sindermann, Solange Vega and Laurène Vaugrante) hosted a symposium titled "Critical Transformers: Psychological perspectives on the human-technology partnership and its impacts on society."

Our PhD candidate, Laurène VAUGRANTE has published her first paper on ARXIV together with Mathias Niepert and Thilo Hagendorff (Universität Stuttgart). Read more here: arxiv.org/abs/2409.20303

Wir verabschieden uns von X👋 #Wissenschaftskommunikation benötigt Diskussionsräume, die transparenten und faktenbasierten Austausch auf Grundlage demokratischer Werte bieten. Dies sehen wir auf X nicht mehr erfüllt. Wir kommunizieren weiter-u.a. auf Mastodon+Bluesky. C U there!

We follow the call of the University of Stuttgart and say goodbye to X. We continue communicating on Mastodon.
