I am an AC for ICLR 2026. One of the papers in my batch was just withdrawn. The authors wrote a brief response, explaining why the reviewers failed at their job. I agree with most of their comments. The authors gave up. They are fed up. Just like many of us. I understand. We

1/3, Language inequalities exist. ๐จ๐ณ children are forced to learn English that they may not have the chance to use, ๐ฎ๐ณ accents are the sources of @Trevornoah's shows - many human beings are not perfect multi-lingual users. This barrier has also impeded science for centuries.

This is a very cool paper. It first shows that first-gen college students don't realize a lot of unwritten rules that lead to success (the value of internships, student clubs, letters from professors). But giving them access to an LLM for guidance significantly closes the gap.
My student Michael Cuna is on the econ job market this year. He has an excellent paper showing the impact of the hidden curriculum on educational outcomes, particularly in the case of first-gen students. The paper also demonstrates the potential for AI tools to close these gaps.

Hi @JeffDean, whatโs the plan for releasing the code for this line of work? None of these papers so far seem to have released any code

Today, we published a paper, โAI and the Future of Learning.โ The paper outlines the opportunity of AI to reduce barriers to education and unlock human potential. It also addresses key questions like cognitive decline and cheating, and the need to build tools grounded in learning

What happens when online job applicants start using LLMs? It ain't good. 1. Pre-LLM, cover letter quality predicts your work quality, and a good cover gets you a job 2. LLMs wipe out the signal, and employer demand falls 3. Model suggests high ability workers lose the most 1/n

This has been an open secret in the economics profession for decades. Several instances come to mind. Hereโs one from the editor of an โAโ journal in 2009: โThis is very good work, your model is neat and the empirical approach is novel. Unfortunately the data is from India, so
This paper shows that authors from low-income countries remain excluded from top-ranked economics journals and receive less attention from other economists. Developing country authors are far less likely to be published in top journals even when holding citation counts constant.

Men and women are treated differently when presenting their economics research. "Within a seminar series, women are interrupted more than men... Interruptions that are negative in tenor or tone, or cutoff the presenter mid-sentence, increase for women presenters." New AER paper

This paper just exposed the biggest AI research scam ๐ MIT just proved AI can generate novel research papers. Stanford confirmed it. OpenAI showcased examples. the papers passed peer review at major conferences. scored higher than human-written work on novelty and feasibility.

New blog post (link below). This one's not an essay, it's an investigation of how LLMs trade off different lives. In February 2025, the Center for AI Safety published "Utility Engineering: Analyzing and Controlling Emergent Value Systems in AIs" in which they showed, among many
