I'm excited to announce that our paper, "Do Generative AI Models Output Harm while Representing Non-Western Cultures: Evidence from A Community-Centered Approach," has been accepted to AI, Ethics, and Society Conference (AIES) ! 🎉 🥳 #AI #Ethics Aylin Kamelia Caliskan Sourojit Ghosh Sanjana Gautam Shomir Wilson

How well do large language models (GPT 3.5 and 4.0) perform as a research #AI scientist? pnas.org/doi/epub/10.10… —Poor but improving curator of citations —Surprisingly good at some aspects of research ethics —Cultural bias embedded —Weak for predicting novel data, results outside

I'll be at AI, Ethics, and Society Conference (AIES) with Aylin Kamelia Caliskan and Anjishnu to show how LLM responses imitate human psychology and how we use it to mitigate social bias using the Contact Hypothesis.

Excited to announce our #NAACL2025 Oral paper! 🎉✨ We carried out the largest systematic study so far to map the links between upstream choices, intrinsic bias, and downstream zero-shot performance across 131 CLIP Vision-language encoders, 26 datasets, and 55 architectures!

🔗 Paper: aclanthology.org/2025.naacl-lon… Work done with amazing collaborators Isaac Slaughter, Kyra Wilson, Aylin Kamelia Caliskan, and Mona Diab! Catch our Oral presentation at Ballroom B, Thursday, May 1st, 14:00-15:30 pm!📷✨

Super excited that I'll be joining the University of Washington Tech Policy Lab and UW NLP as a postdoc in the Fall working with Aylin Kamelia Caliskan to continue my research directions in situated evaluation, multimodal/lingual GenAI, and start exploring new directions in safety and alignment! Open to collabs😉

So excited to share my first solo authored book! The book explains what makes technology so hard for law to analyze and regulate, and provides a step-by-step method for generating wiser tech policy. A steal at $40. 😉 All thoughts warmly welcome. global.oup.com/academic/produ…

My new book Law and Technology: A Methodical Approach is available for pre-order ($40) over at Oxford University Press. The book explores what scholars and society can do about emerging technology. global.oup.com/academic/produ…
