How can we give people more agency when interacting with artificial intelligence systems? That is one of the questions that Sarah Wiegreffe's research aims to answer. Ask Sarah your questions about natural language processing, empirical ML and explainable #AI in today's #RedditAMA: redd.it/1vm665h

Our ICML 2025 workshop on Actionable Interpretability drew massive interest. But the same questions kept coming up: What does "actionable" mean? Is it achievable? How? We're ready to answer. 🧵

A bit late to announce, but I’m excited to share that I'll be starting as an assistant professor at UMD CS @univofmaryland.bsky.social this August. I'll be recruiting PhD students this upcoming cycle for fall 2026. (And if you're a UMD grad student, sign up for my fall seminar!)

Checkout our new preprint/project which has been over a year in the making! This has been a very fun collaboration (and one of the biggest I've personally participated in). @amuuueller.bsky.social @boknilev.bsky.social and other co-authors are around #ICLR2025 if you want to find out more. 😊
