Glad to have our work be featured by Pitt Swanson School of Engineering!

The US government recently flagged my scientific grant in its "woke DEI database". Many people have asked me what I will do.

My answer today in Nature.

We will not be cowed. We will keep using AI to build a fairer, healthier world.

I should have set this up years ago... 🥲

Delighted to share that our work on the volesti package (github.com/GeomScale/vo...) has been accepted to the JOSS journal (doi.org/10.21105/jos...)! 🎉

Excited to be giving a talk today at ASU ML day (1.50-2.50 pm MST) on our work with Yuan Yuan on our work on network formation with LLMs, and the same talk on Sunday at the Network Science and Economics Conference at Stanford!

*Please repost* @sjgreenwood.bsky.social and I just launched a new personalized feed (*please pin*) that we hope will become a "must use" for #academicsky. The feed shows posts about papers filtered by *your* follower network. It's become my default Bluesky experience bsky.app/profile/pape...

Please repost to get the word out! @nkgarg.bsky.social and I are excited to present a personalized feed for academics! It shows posts about papers from accounts you’re following bsky.app/profile/pape...

I am happy to announce that our paper "LEVERAGING LLMs FOR COLLECTIVE DECISION-MAKING" has been accepted at the ACM CSCW conference! 🎉

This is joint work with Longqi Yang (@ylongqi.bsky.social) and Chin-Chia Hsu and as part of my internship at Microsoft.

Economist @joshgans.bsky.social uses o1-pro to generate a (minor, fun) paper in an hour based on an idea of his, and it gets published in an appropriate peer reviewed journal, with adequate disclosure.

He ends with the same sentiment I am increasingly seeing from fellow academics: what now?

Job market update! 🎉

I am excited to announce that I will be joining the Department of Information Systems at the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University as an Assistant Professor next fall!

That’s ALL. Thank me later. 😆

Looking to follow scientists modeling contagion dynamics?

I’ve created the grotesquely incomplete starter pack for you!

Follow and point out the gaps (especially if they involve you : )
