Joined September 2014
Very excited to see this paper out @PNASNexus with awesome collaborators @RaBhui @gershbrain Derek Powell + Rachit Dubey! We explore why, when, and how climate consensus messaging works. When presented with scientific consensus, ppl learn not only from but about scientists 🧵
Emphasizing the skill gap between scientists who agree and scientists who do not agree with the consensus view that humans are changing the climate raises climate belief across political parties, according to a survey of 2,545 Americans. In PNAS Nexus: https://t.co/b1EQjdShOd

Great article from @kakape about the five biggest challenges facing misinformation researchers highlighting some of our recent work! Agree with pretty much all these. https://t.co/JOtSi6Fk8a

The burgeoning field is still grappling with fundamental problems, from getting access to data to defining 'misinformation' in the first place

How can the same LLM pass AP math and also claim 9.10 > 9.9? Our #ICML2024 paper: LLMs are wrong in ways that people can't predict. Benchmarks can be misleading because people decide how LLMs are used. Solution: measure LLM alignment with the "human generalization function" 🧵

A huge amount of dissatisfaction with life is just neuroticism, low concientiousness, and introversion.
Life satisfaction is mostly about personality, for most people, most of the time. Even more so, than we thought. Likely the most comprehensive study yet is now out in the JPSP: https://t.co/0PPyBCjfEe 🧵
