I'm super happy & proud to be able to work with this rock star group of a team (and academic guests)! 🧠🧠🧠💫🙏 @goetheuni.bsky.social @infer-frankfurt.bsky.social
- and it's really nice to check out parts of Frankfurt that I hadn't been to as part of our team event

Check out this article on leveraging AI for conducting social science research!
Social science research can be time-consuming, expensive, and hard to replicate. But with AI, scientists can now simulate human data and run studies at scale. Does it actually work? hai.stanford.edu/news/social-...

Despite limitations, advances in AI offer social science researchers the ability to simulate human subjects.

Excited to continue learning about the latest #CSS at @ic2s2.bsky.social! I’ll be at the Social Prediction Session, presenting the mixed subjects design on combining human and LLM data in experiments. Paper with Michael Howes and @austin-van-loon.bsky.social. Come join us! doi.org/10.1177/0049...

How can we leverage generative AI to advance social science methods and research? Daniel Karell and Thomas Davidson led a special issue in Sociological Methods & Research to find out. Special kudos to them! journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Mixed feelings about silicon subjects (LLM predictions of human behavior) as replacements for human subjects? Consider the mixed subjects design.

Happy to share my new paper with Cat Dang Ton and @eollion.bsky.social on how to use generative LLMs for extracting information from textual data (conditionally accepted at Sociological Methods & Research)
Here's a rundown..

🚨 ACCEPTED AT SMR 🚨
Confused by colleagues who seem to want to study LLMs instead of humans? Frustrated by skeptics (e.g., myself 8 months ago) who dismiss LLMs as a potential source of data on human behavior? Check out our paper for a new way forward: osf.io/j3bnt_v3/
