Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 27/11/2024And as an extension to this, I've heard anecdotally that debugging "questionable" AI generated code can take just as long as writing it from scratch. 020
Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 27/11/2024And in this report, its buried a bit, but in the section "towards effective AI support for developers" there's mention of concern amongst developers about the potential vulnerabilities using AI to generate code could introduce. www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear...microsoft.comGenerative AI in Real-World Workplaces - Microsoft ResearchThis report presents the most recent findings of Microsoft’s research initiative on AI and Productivity, which seeks to measure and understand the productivity gains associated with LLM-powered produc... 100
Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 27/11/2024First, I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to respond. So, here is one paper that I would say defends the notion of "stochastic parrot" x.com/RTomMcCoy/st...x.comx.com 100
Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 27/11/2024You're definitely more well connected than someone in my position, but the assumption of "of course they can" isnt quite the shared and dominant sense that I've been getting. 110

It highlights how skill sets translate across disciplines and how attacking a problem as an outsider may yield unexpected results. If you are excited about a new area, you should get outside your comfort zone and contribute in your own unique way 241
Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Either one works! Given my current profile, it probably makes sense to be in the responsible AI starter pack. (I'm working with security folks right now so I guess that's just been more at the forefront of my thoughts.) 020
Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Hi Stephen! Would I be able to join this 2nd privacy and security starter pack? Thank you! 110

Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 19/11/2024thru the framework of Topic Modeling w/ and w/out LLM assistance. Our findings indicate positive efficiency gains but also a worrisome anchoring bias that colors the final analysis. We hope that our study can add meaningful evidence to this ongoing global dialogue. Read the paper for details! 3/3 020
Alex Choi @aschoi.bsky.social · 19/11/2024our paper examines the integration of LLMs into specialized expert workflows, and explores both the potential benefits & worrisome pitfalls of this emerging partnership. We asked International Policy experts to analyze and annotate lengthy AI Policy interviews, 2/3 121
