1/ 🌍 How does mixing data from hundreds of languages affect LLM training? In our new paper "Revisiting Multilingual Data Mixtures in Language Model Pretraining" we revisit core assumptions about multilinguality using 1.1B-3B models trained on up to 400 languages. 🧵👇

1/🚨 New preprint How do #LLMs’ inner features change as they train? Using #crosscoders + a new causal metric, we map when features appear, strengthen, or fade across checkpoints—opening a new lens on training dynamics beyond loss curves & benchmarks. #interpretability

If you’re at @iclr-conf.bsky.social this week, come check out our spotlight poster INCLUDE during the Thursday 3:00–5:30pm session! I will be there to chat about all things multilingual & multicultural evaluation. Feel free to reach out anytime during the conference. I’d love to connect!

NEW PAPER ALERT: Generating visual narratives to illustrate textual stories remains an open challenge, due to the lack of knowledge to constrain faithful and self-consistent generations. Our #CVPR2025 paper proposes a new benchmark, VinaBench, to address this challenge.

Lots of great news out of the EPFL NLP lab these last few weeks. We'll be at @iclr-conf.bsky.social and @naaclmeeting.bsky.social in April / May to present some of our work in training dynamics, model representations, reasoning, and AI democratization. Come chat with us during the conference!

🚨 New Paper! Can neuroscience localizers uncover brain-like functional specializations in LLMs? 🧠🤖 Yes! We analyzed 18 LLMs and found units mirroring the brain's language, theory of mind, and multiple demand networks! w/ @gretatuckute.bsky.social, @abosselut.bsky.social, @mschrimpf.bsky.social 🧵👇
