KInIT is an independent, non-profit institute dedicated to intelligent technology research. We bring together experts in different areas of computer science.
🔍 How well do vision-language models really understand language?

Our upcoming DisAI Amplified paper Hidden in Top K takes a new angle — instead of human-made “hard” examples, we test what the model itself finds challenging.

📄 Preprint coming soon!

AI was supposed to be fair… instead, it did something else 🤷

🆕 In our newest paper we look at the political views of LLMs, how these biases generalize, and how models can be steered.

At #ACL2025, Jaroslav Kopčan showed that dictionary-based methods can rival LLMs. Especially for morphologically rich languages like Slovak, they can be faster, cheaper & more reliable than today’s hyped models

🚀 NEW BLOG: How LLM models are improving fact-checking?
💡 While embedding models can find similar fact-checks, generative LLMs can truly understand and select the most relevant ones. We tested 5 different prompting strategies.
