Move over Jordan Peterson this veterinary handbook contains the real rules for life

Jenny Hong & Derek Chong present how to do effective #NLProc information extraction from long legal texts despite having very limited labels—and why it is important to allow stakeholders to be able to audit legal systems Video youtube.com/watch?v=TIN_2n… Paper aclanthology.org/2021.nllp-1.20…

May I invite you to a fun thread about a delightful quirk of relativity theory? Starting with a simple fact about rotations, I’ll hope to give you some intuition about something that’s considered wildly counterintuitive: velocity addition. Intrigued? Buckle up!

Hmmm... twitter is getting pretty popular on the interwebs lately. Time to have a look back into it.

How can users fix "bugs" in trained classifiers post-hoc without finetuning on additional data? In our EMNLP 2022 paper, we show that corrective feedback expressed as a *library of conditional natural language statements* are a promising direction. (1/n) arxiv.org/pdf/2211.03318…

Detecting Label Errors using Pre-Trained Language Models You don’t need special techniques for label error detection—just use a foundation model! Derek Chong Derek Chong Jenny Hong Christopher Manning also stress needing realistic label noise for experiments. #emnlp2022 arxiv.org/abs/2205.12702

#OpenAI's ChatGPT is ready to become a lawyer, it passed a practice bar exam! Scoring 70% (35/50). Guessing randomly would happen < 0.00000001% of the time

Automating AI research is exciting! But can LLMs actually produce novel, expert-level research ideas? After a year-long study, we obtained the first statistically significant conclusion: LLM-generated ideas are more novel than ideas written by expert human researchers.

Super excited to share NNetnav : A new method for generating complex demonstrations to train web agents—driven entirely via exploration! Here's how we’re building useful browser agents, without expensive human supervision: 🧵👇 Code: github.com/MurtyShikhar/N… Preprint:

New #NAACL2025 paper! 🚨 Transformer LMs are data hungry, we propose a new auxiliary loss function (TreeReg) to fix that. TreeReg takes bracketing decisions from syntax trees and turns them into orthogonality constraints on span representations. ✅ Boosts pre-training data

Big congratulations to Derek Chong (Derek Chong)on receiving his Stanford University MS CS today! It’s been great working with you, Derek!

The Malaysian election on Wednesday, which has largely gone under the radar – despite the competition. The brutal truth is Malaysia is malapportioned. Sarawak has 9 more seats then Selangor, despite having half the people. /1 of long story #PRU14 #MalaysiaDecides #ElectionTwitter
