Can LLMs replace human subjects in social science? A thread on our latest paper. TL;DR: to date, they cannot really, because they exhibit an unnoticed pattern we call “machine bias”. osf.io/preprints/soca… 1/n

Predicting the Self with Generative AI I built an #ArtificialInteligence oracle to predict future selves. It went okay. Slides: jasonjones.ninja/misc/slides-Jo… Preprint: osf.io/preprints/soca…
Summarizing long documents (>100K tokens) is a popular use case for LLMs, but how faithful are these summaries? We present FABLES, a dataset of human annotations of faithfulness & content selection in LLM-generated summaries of books. arxiv.org/abs/2404.01261 🧵below:

Can LLMs replace human subjects in social science? A thread on our latest paper. TL;DR: to date, they cannot really, because they exhibit an unnoticed pattern we call “machine bias”. osf.io/preprints/soca… 1/n
Journalists: can you always, at minimum, link to the study you're writing about?
Critique is cheap talk. People can spam endless vague most incorrect ideas, authors can cherry pick/ignore/double down and nothing changes. It should all just go into the record so a consumer downrange can decide for themselves how to evaluate that ev.
💘 residuals 💘 For any model: residual = data point - model prediction it is the part of the data that your model has failed to explain residuals are good for checking model diagnostics, AND ALSO super interesting *as their own thing* as below
Label the green and purple ovals.
many critiques of LLMs are solved by putting the LLM inside a good bureaucracy. Good bureaucracy provides workers (and LLMs?) with 1) good directions ("prompting" & "alignment") 2) tolerance for mistakes ("hallucinate") 3) tolerance for inconsistency ("variable")
maybe if it turns out to be made of H100s but that seems unlikely
@chris_petsko I’ve never seen something so incorrect. Please tell me you appealed.
probably of greatest interest to most social scientists are the tools for data labeling: docs.expectedparrot.com/en/latest/note…
@emollick No need to fear monger. The technology can be used to build defenses, if people focus on doing that instead of fear mongering
If your statistical framework requires you to utter incantations the day before you run the regression for it to count, maybe that's not a super scientific framework
