Celebrating Frank Baumgartner at the Annual Comparative Agendas Project conference. Immense contributions to comparative and American politics and beyond. I am honored to call him a friend and I am looking forward to learning from him for many more years to come!

I have always suspected that large language models need energy. But courtesy of long-needed research by @clint0475.bsky.social @patrickparschan.bsky.social and colleagues we now have more solid evidence of the impact of using them for research purposes #COMPTEXT2025

I first visited the Policy Agendas team at @utaustin.bsky.social a decade ago. Bryan Jones and the team graciously encouraged us to establish the Hungarian CAP project. Ten years passed, and here I was again, working with these amazing people. Here is to the next decade of great CAP research!

The @syracuseu.bsky.social Maxwell School/Campbell Institute, under the leadership of @faricy.bsky.social, have launched critical initiatives in data development for a new era of policy agenda studies. It has been a privilege to present our poltextLAB AI and large-language model solutions there!
