La resolución de la ONU que entrega Gaza a Trump con el beneplácito de Europa
La resolución aprobada esta semana, impulsada por EEUU, normaliza la ocupación colonial, diseña un nuevo gueto palestino y entrega el mando de forma oficial a los dos Estados autores del genocidio

“…wherever there was a ‘deserving’ Party member and no other place could be found for him, he would be dumped into education.…Putting ignorant ‘reliables,’ from politics or business, over the educators was also part of the Nazi way of humiliating education and bringing it into popular contempt.”

The debate over “LLMs as annotators” feels familiar: excitement, backlash, and anxiety about bad science. My take in a new blogpost is that LLMs don’t break measurement; they expose how fragile it already was.

There’s plenty of evidence for political bias in LLMs, but very few evals reflect realistic LLM use cases — which is where bias actually matters.
IssueBench, our attempt to fix this, is accepted at TACL, and I will be at #EMNLP2025 next week to talk about it!

Are LLMs biased when they write about political issues?
We just released IssueBench – the largest, most realistic benchmark of its kind – to answer this question more robustly than ever before.

Political will is needed now to end the war in #Gaza.
Over 700 days of bombardments, the people have nowhere safe to go.
Each day, a never-ending road of fear, destruction, and forced displacement.
UNRWA has repeatedly called for a ceasefire.
The war must be stopped.
