New @acm-cscw.bsky.social paper, new content moderation paradigm. Post Guidance lets moderators prevent rule-breaking by triggering interventions as users write posts! We implemented PG on Reddit and tested it in a massive field experiment (n=97k). It became a feature! arxiv.org/abs/2411.16814

This @emnlpmeeting.bsky.social paper argues that LLM responses in big5-style tests are reliable. LLM responses across various settings (eg, languages, prompts) vary less than human responses. Yet, the external validity of these tests for LLMs remains unclear. aclanthology.org/2024.emnlp-m...

Can we detect #hatespeech at scale on social media? To answer this, we introduce 🤬HateDay🗓️, a global hate speech dataset representative of a day on Twitter. The answer: not really! Detection perf is low and overestimated by traditional eval methods arxiv.org/abs/2411.15462 🧵

New paper: Do social media algorithms shape affective polarization? We ran a field experiment on X/Twitter (N=1,256) using LLMs to rerank content in real-time, adjusting exposure to polarizing posts. Result: Algorithmic ranking impacts feelings toward the political outgroup! 🧵⬇️
