The key takeaway of this study is that compared to the human cloze baseline, language models over-predict words that are either related to the most predictable next word (the 'best completion') or to the event under discussion

Really enjoyed the babyLM talks and posters hosted by CoNLL 2025/Cognitive Modeling and Computational Linguistics at EMNLP 2025 last year! Looking forward to seeing what people come up with this time round!

This is concerning, and I wouldn't be surprised if it leads to some students having to withdraw their papers from the conference

Exciting to see our paper (with Megan Bardolph, Cyma K. Van Petten, Benjamin K. Bergen, and Seana Coulson) 'in print' at Neurobiology of Language!

This paper is now accepted to be presented at Conference on Language Modeling! Updated version is on arXiv. Feeling excited for the conference, let me know if you want to meet!

Excited to present this at COLM this week! Reach out if you want to meet/chat!

Also generally interested in chatting about cognitive modeling, scaling, and language comprehension/understanding in humans and machines! Conference on Language Modeling #COLM2024

Excited to share the second paper of this research project!
