With all the attention on "agentic LLM social simulations", how do we know if simulated behaviors are realistic? Come by our poster at the #COLM #SocialSim workshop at noon-1pm to find out! (More details in 🧵, or at openreview.net/forum?id=1BD...)
Do Role-Playing Agents Practice What They Preach? Belief-Behavior...
As large language models (LLMs) are increasingly studied as role-playing agents to generate synthetic data for human behavioral research, ensuring that their outputs remain coherent with their...

In Montreal at COLM 2025 presenting two papers, DM me if you'd like to chat! Happy to chat all things NLP, interpretability, or cognitive science; and actively looking for Research Scientist roles (graduating May 2026).

How can we interpret what features LLMs use to perform a given task? 🤖💭 And how do we know if our interpretation is correct? 🤔🔬
Excited to be presenting 2 papers + oral on these questions in the #InterpretableAI workshop at #neurips2024 📢 -- come by our posters/talk to hear more!
