It’s been a wonderful first half-day in #MadisonWI. We got to check out some of the old stomping grounds from our time in graduate school 25 years ago, especially State Street and the Capitol Square. We spent some time at the #Wisconsin #IceCube Particle #Astrophysics Center (WIPAC) and met with colleagues of ours there. It’s good to be in our academic home, where we first met.

I am excited for @jodi’s #colloquium in the #Physics Department tomorrow afternoon!

Offensive language is rampant across online platforms. At our latest colloquium, Esra Dönmez explored the challenges large language models (LLMs) face in recognizing and responding to offensive content. Her study revealed that many leading LLMs struggle to correctly identify offensive language. She uncovered that these models often exhibit undesirable behavior patterns, such as erroneous response generation, over-reliance on profanity, and failure to recognize stereotypes. A fascinating look into the limitations and possibilities of AI in detecting online speech!
