In our new @PNASNews paper, across 21 experiments with 23,000+ participants, we identify a critical distortion that shapes decisions involving tradeoffs: we find that people systematically overweight quantified information in such decisions. Paper: pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.24… 🧵

Does counting change what counts? Quantification fixation biases decision-making | PNAS

People often rely on numeric metrics to make decisions and form judgments. Numbers can be difficult to process, leading to their underutilization, ...

Really proud of @James_G_Nevin - a fantastic PhD student. Was fun to supervise him together with @mhlees . We know that data handling (i.e. data integration, cleaning, etc) can have lots of downstream impacts. Here's evidence.

This is the best paper written so far about the impact of AI on scientific discovery
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There seem to be grave concerns about the integrity of the research. MIT announced that they "conducted an internal, confidential review and concluded that the paper should be withdrawn from public discourse." economics.mit.edu/news/assuring-… wsj.com/tech/ai/mit-sa…

🚨 What’s the best way to select data for fine-tuning LLMs effectively? 📢Introducing ZIP-FIT—a compression-based data selection framework that outperforms leading baselines, achieving up to 85% faster convergence in cross-entropy loss, and selects data up to 65% faster. 🧵1/8
