webrarian is a new R package. It turns a folder of R scripts and data into a static website where R runs in the visitor's browser, with no compute server and nothing to install. blog.thecoatlessprofessor.com/posts/introd... #rstats #webr #webassembly
A card for the R package webrarian. Large text reads "A folder in. A website out." On the left, a small card lists a folder named lab-01 holding lab.R, setup.R and a data folder. A red arrow points from it to a browser window that shows a scatterplot of car weight against miles per gallon with brick-red points. The address coatless-wasm.github.io/webrarian is on the card.

Excited to share our new paper, “What AI Benchmarks Actually Measure: Adapting Convergent and Discriminant Validity to Interrogate Fifty-Six AI Benchmarks,” accepted as an oral at COLM! arxiv.org/pdf/2609.08812
Heatmap of average correlations between model rankings on benchmarks grouped into 11 assigned concepts: four capability concepts (reasoning, knowledge, comprehension, summarization) and seven safety concepts (over-refusal, refusal, safety detection, ethics, bias, privacy, unsafe behavior). Diagonal cells show within-concept correlations, ranging from 0.87 (knowledge) and 0.72 (over-refusal) down to 0.20 (bias) and 0.02 (safety detection). Reasoning, knowledge, and comprehension correlate with each other at 0.69 to 0.78, higher than reasoning's and comprehension's own within-concept values (0.66 and 0.68). Ethics correlates more with knowledge (0.70) than with itself (0.55), and bias correlates more with capability concepts (0.41 to 0.45) than with itself (0.20). Privacy and unsafe behavior correlate negatively with reasoning, knowledge, and comprehension (−0.41 to −0.49). Over-refusal and refusal correlate at −0.42.
