Hamburg just said YES in the climate referendum! ♥️
Thanks to everyone who fought for it.
This vote matters for Hamburg – and sends a strong signal far beyond.
The climate issue is alive: we can set the agenda and win!

Another lesson: climate action must go hand in hand with social justice.

📣 New Preprint!
Have you ever wondered what the political content in LLM's training data is? What are the political opinions expressed? What is the proportion of left- vs right-leaning documents in the pre- and post-training data? Do they correlate with the political biases reflected in models?

We have a new paper out today, and I’m so proud of it and the work that went into creating it! Link here: arxiv.org/pdf/2509.184....

I've been waiting some years to make this joke and now it’s real:

I conned somebody into giving me a faculty job!

I’m starting as a W1 Tenure-Track Professor at Goethe University Frankfurt in a week (lol), in the Faculty of CS and Math

and I'm recruiting PhD students 🤗

NeurIPS has decided to do what ICLR did: As a SAC I received the message 👇 This is wrong! If the review process cannot handle so many papers, the conference needs yo split instead of arbitrarily rejecting 400 papers.

Are you afraid of LLMs teaching people how to build bioweapons? Have you tried just... not teaching LLMs about bioweapons?

@eleutherai.bsky.social‬ and the UK AISI joined forces to see what would happen, pretraining three 6.9B models for 500B tokens and producing 15 total models to study

Appropriate reliance is key to safe and successful user interactions with LLMs. But what shapes user reliance on LLMs, and how can we foster appropriate reliance?

In our #CHI2025 paper, we explore these questions through two user studies.

I've recently put together a "Fairness FAQ": tinyurl.com/fairness-faq. If you work in non-fairness ML and you've heard about fairness, perhaps you've wondered things like what the best definitions of fairness are, and whether we can train algorithms that optimize for it.
