Hey #CausalTwitter, some news about our DoWhy python library - we are excited by how people are using DoWhy and we are working to support a broader community!
To broaden access to this important causal library—widely used with 1M+ downloads—DoWhy is moving to an independent PyWhy GitHub organization. The first step: collaboration with @awscloud, which is contributing advanced graphical causal model algorithms: msft.it/6010bVMDm

✨I’m on the academic job market!✨
I'm a CS Postdoc at Stanford in the @stanfordnlp. I develop AI and causal inference to tackle societal issues like online civility, racial justice, sustainability, and more.
Check out the thread for details!

What happens when LLMs encounter information that contradicts their static knowledge? 🤔
Discover our findings, including a new dataset and interpretability method, in our ACL 2024 paper! 🧵👇

Check out our new work, now out in Frontiers in Nutrition:
"Measuring and Shaping the Nutritional Environment via Food Sales Logs: Case Studies of Campus-Wide Food Choice and a Call to Action"! frontiersin.org/articles/10.…
very well-deserved, @kous2v! Congratulations!
Thank you for the award, @sigchi! I actually had my 1st full-paper in-person presentation at CHI after four years of remote attendance and presentations! #CHI2024 💕
Thanks for the click, @DrSanchariDas. Thanks again to my coauthors @Pranshu258 @GloriaMark_PhD @emrek @munmun10

Happy that our #CHI2024 paper on the observer effect received an honorable mention award! 🏆 One of my favorite papers, and it was a joyful journey to do this work ❤️
Thanks again to my amazing coauthors @Pranshu258 @GloriaMark_PhD @emrek @munmun10

We often wonder how the awareness of being "watched" affects our online behaviors. Our #CHI2024 paper studies observer (/hawthorne) effect: how do people's social media use deviate from typical use with the awareness of being observed? w/ Pranshu @emrek @GloriaMark_PhD @munmun10

Excited to release the AI Controller Interface, making it easier to tightly integrate and experiment with new strategies for controlling #LLM generation with custom logic, data, constrained decoding, parallel generations, ... cc: @m_moskal
The AI Controller Interface helps researchers and developers to efficiently implement existing strategies for controlling LLMs and invent new ones, enhancing LLM generation through improved accuracy, privacy, and compliance with formatting standards. msft.it/6011i71u1

Folks, give this new tool from RiSE a spin: github.com/microsoft/aici. Prompts are WASM programs and gives you a flexible/programmable way to control the output of an LLM. Semantics matter :)

This is actually brilliant work by microsoft: github.com/microsoft/aici.
Sending mini WASM programs instead of prompts to LLM providers would be incredibly powerful. Multiturn, , Grammar, COT, RAG, function calling, etc could all massively benefit from this

Had a great time presenting our work on causal inference! Thanks for the opportunity to interact with other researchers producing such interesting work on utilising LLMs for causal reasoning! #AAAI24

If you’re enjoying the #aaai panel on llms right now, check out this panel on current challenges with llms coming up at 6:30pm this evening
At AAAI in Vancouver this week?
Make sure to check out the CLEI 2024 industry panel, where we discuss current challenges in commercializing LLMs.
When? Saturday 6:30pm.

Prompts are the new programming language, #LLMs are the new hardware architecture, and AICI is the new LLM ISA that guides the LLM to generate correct content. #ArtificialIntelligence #LargeLanguageModels

On 12 October I will be giving an online talk on #causality - the key theoretical basics, & a demo of how to apply the causal data science pipeline to a retail problem in Python with DoWhy.
