Proud of @navreeetkaur for spearheading this work!
As LLMs become trusted advisors, evaluating responses without considering the social context of the asker is a major blind spot—especially in sensitive domains. Look forward to the discussions it will spark #ACL2026 @uw_ischool
People share deeply personal context with LLMs – it feels anonymous, judgment-free, and promises tailored advice and information.
In our #ACL2026 paper, we ask: how does an asker's role –– implicitly signaled in how they frame a question –– shape the response they get back? 🧵

🚨YouTube is a key source of health info, but it’s also rife with dangerous myths on opioid use disorder (OUD), a leading cause of death in the U.S.
To understand the scale of such misinformation, our #EMNLP2025 paper introduces MythTriage, a scalable system to detect OUD myth🧵
China leading the way for ACL submissions while United States witnessing a significant drop from last year #ACL2025
Figuring it out what’s it like attending the largest ACL conference. Also returning to attend my first ACL as a faculty. The last one I attended was almost half a decade ago as a PhD student #ACL2025NLP
Woohoo! Congrats Hayoung! Such a well deserved award. It was a treat to work with you all these years and I can’t wait to see all the awesome things you are going to do next in your PhD journey!

“Information Sharing and Content Framing across Multiple Platforms and Functional Roles That Exemplify Social Processes of Online Hate Groups” by @shruti_ph and @tanmit examines how traditional, offline hate groups use Facebook and Twitter/X to create an online ecosphere of hate, misinformation, and conspiracies, to grow their movements, cultivate new recruits, and spread their dogma.

talk today at the 10:10am session on "When LLMs are being deployed". The work highlights the ways fact-checking orgs are using generative AI and the challenges that prevent further adoption.

This was a fun talk to hear #facct2024 on Evaluation of LLMs' Humour Alignment with Comedians, which essentially ended with "We need more HCI methods" :-) arxiv.org/abs/2405.20956
