The Hrunting of AI: Where and How to Improve English Dialectal Fairness

Wei Li, Adrian de Wynter

It is known that large language models (LLMs) underperform in English dialects, and that improving them is difficult due to data scarcity. In this work we investigate how quality a…

Causal Reasoning Favors Encoders: On The Limits of Decoder-Only Models

Amartya Roy, Elamparithy M, Kripabandhu Ghosh +2

In context learning (ICL) underpins recent advances in large language models (LLMs), although its role and performance in causal reasoning remains unclear. Causal reasoning demands…

Is In-Context Learning Learning?

Adrian de Wynter

In-context learning (ICL) allows some autoregressive models to solve tasks via next-token prediction and without needing further training. This has led to claims about these model'…

The Thin Line Between Comprehension and Persuasion in LLMs

Adrian de Wynter, Tangming Yuan

Large language models (LLMs) are excellent at maintaining high-level, convincing dialogue, but it remains unclear whether their persuasive success reflects genuine understanding of…

Algorithmically Establishing Trust in Evaluators

Adrian de Wynter

An evaluator, such as an LLM-as-a-judge, is trustworthy when there exists some agreed-upon way to measure its performance as a labeller. Traditional approaches either rely on testi…

A Multilingual, Culture-First Approach to Addressing Misgendering in LLM Applications

Sunayana Sitaram, Adrian de Wynter, Isobel McCrum +2

Misgendering is the act of referring to someone by a gender that does not match their chosen identity. It marginalizes and undermines a person's sense of self, causing significant…
