Human-LLM Deliberation as Interactive Proof: Conditions for Verifiability Without Transparency

Baotong Zhang, Dean Foster, João Sedoc

When an LLM supplies an argument a user could not produce, how can the user decide whether to accept its claim? Inspired by interactive proofs, we pair a computationally unbounded…

Epistemic Warrant for LLM Recommendations: Characterizing the Basis for Reliance When Ground Truth Is Unavailable

Shai Vardi, João Sedoc

Large language models are increasingly used to support organizational decisions, yet users often lack a principled basis for assessing whether to rely on a specific recommendation.…

Trust but Verify: Prover-Verifier Deliberation for Selective LLM Prediction

João Sedoc, Baotong Zhang, Dean Foster

Reliably knowing when a language model is correct is almost as important as being correct. We introduce prover-verifier deliberation (PVD), an inference-time protocol grounded in i…

Conceptors for Semantic Steering

Ilias Triantafyllopoulos, Young-Min Cho, Ren Tao +6

Activation-based steering provides control of LLM behavior at inference time, but the dominant paradigm reduces each concept to a single direction whose geometry is left largely un…

DBOT: Artificial Intelligence for Systematic Long-Term Investing

Vasant Dhar, João Sedoc

Long-term investing was previously seen as requiring human judgment. With the advent of generative artificial intelligence (AI) systems, automated systematic long-term investing is…

Reasoning and the Trusting Behavior of DeepSeek and GPT: An Experiment Revealing Hidden Fault Lines in Large Language Models

Rubing Li, João Sedoc, Arun Sundararajan

When encountering increasingly frequent performance improvements or cost reductions from a new large language model (LLM), developers of applications leveraging LLMs must decide wh…

To Err Is Human; To Annotate, SILICON? Toward Robust Reproducibility in LLM Annotation

Xiang Cheng, Raveesh Mayya, João Sedoc

Unstructured text data annotation is foundational to management research. LLMs offer a cost-effective and scalable alternative to human annotation, but they introduce a novel chall…
