Joint work with Amanpreet Singh @arnaik19.bsky.social @sergeyf.bsky.social @paopow.bsky.social @kylelo.bsky.social @dougdowney.bsky.social Dan Weld and more. Please check it out and give us feedback : )
Can AI really help with literature reviews? 🧐
Meet Ai2 ScholarQA, an experimental solution that allows you to ask questions that require multiple scientific papers to answer. It gives more in-depth and contextual answers with table comparisons and expandable sections 💡

🤔Giving complex tasks to AI agents is easy—getting them to do exactly what you want isn’t. How can human-AI collaboration give us more reliable & steerable agents?

How do scholars of diff backgrounds use LLMs as research tools? How do we perceive the risks & benefits of this new practice? Are we willing to disclose to peers and reviewers?

We conducted a large-scale survey of verified authors of different fields, race, gender, seniority to find out - results🧵
Hi everyone, I am excited to share our large-scale survey study with 800+ researchers, which reveals researchers’ usage and perceptions of LLMs as research tools, and how the usage and perceptions differ based on demographics.

See results in comments!

LLMs as Research Tools: A Large Scale Survey of Researchers' Usage and Perceptions
The rise of large language models (LLMs) has led many researchers to consider their usage for scientific work. Some have found benefits using LLMs to augment or automate aspects of their research pipe...

Excited to share ✨ Contextualized Evaluations ✨!

Benchmarks like Chatbot Arena contain underspecified queries, which can lead to arbitrary eval judgments. What happens if we provide evaluators with context (e.g who's the user, what's their intent) when judging LM outputs? 🧵↓

Lit reviews often involves comparing sets of papers using common aspects in tables or spreadsheets -
@benn9.bsky.social & Yoonjoo Lee's #EMNLP paper explored ways to create such tables using LLMs, and how to evaluate them against a large set of lit review tables we extracted from arXiv.
✨EMNLP Paper! ✨
Have you ever constructed a table to organize your literature review process? Can we use LMs to generate these automatically?

We are excited to present ArxivDIGESTables 🍽️ a study of collecting, generating, and evaluating 🎓 scientific literature review tables 📃!
