Closed out the inaugural year of the Berkeley AI & Society social with a look at a new statewide police use-of-force + misconduct database built by Berkeley EECS, journalism, law, data science, and others, including at Stanford. ML+ other techniques+sweat pulled of the enormous data cleaning (1/3)

My periodic reminder to my CMU friends to get someone with any inkling of UI design to fix their letter upload portal. I don't know what to pick between "Submit" and "Upload Recommendation", and the dropdown forces me to make a choice even if I don't want to. cc @andypavlo.bsky.social @domoritz.de

If you're at The Curve Conference this weekend, come dive into what the future of applied evals looks like! I'll be demo-ing EvalForge, an implementation of the "who validates the validators" paper with @weightsbiases.bsky.social Big thanks to @capetorch.bsky.social and Anish for their work here

First post here! I'm currently researching how LLMs can be grounded in tables, bc they're a goldmine for fresh domain data. We've now introduced the 🎯TARGET benchmark for evaluating table retrieval in RAG pipelines, e.g. QA/factver/text2sql: target-benchmark.github.io Thinking BM25? Think twice..🧵
