Totally agree! Not sure fully automated AI scientist will be the most effective approach. That said, scientists will certainly be very different in the future.

As AI becomes increasingly capable of conducting analyses and following instructions, my prediction is that the role of scientists will increasingly focus on identifying and selecting important problems to work on ("selector"), and effectively evaluating analyses performed by AI ("evaluator").

⚡️Ever asked an LLM-as-Marilyn Monroe about the 2020 election? Our paper calls this concept incongruence, common in both AI and how humans create and reason. 🧠Read my blog to learn what we found, why it matters for AI safety and creativity, and what's next: cichicago.substack.com/p/concept-in...

Prompting is our most successful tool for exploring LLMs, but the term evokes eye-rolls and grimaces from scientists. Why? Because prompting as scientific inquiry has become conflated with prompt engineering. This is holding us back. 🧵and new paper with @ari-holtzman.bsky.social .

When you walk into the ER, you could get a doc: 1. Fresh from a week of not working 2. Tired from working too many shifts @oziadias.bsky.social has been both and thinks that they're different! But can you tell from their notes? Yes we can! Paper @natcomms.nature.com www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I am glad that you found our paper entertaining! This is a great point for my follow-up thread on the implications of concept incongruence. Our main goal is to raise awareness and provide clarity around concept incongruence.

🚨 New paper alert 🚨 Ever asked an LLM-as-Marilyn Monroe who the US president was in 2000? 🤔 Should the LLM answer at all? We call these clashes Concept Incongruence. Read on! ⬇️ 1/n 🧵

1/n 🚀🚀🚀 Thrilled to share our latest work🔥: HypoEval - Hypothesis-Guided Evaluation for Natural Language Generation! 🧠💬📊 There’s a lot of excitement around using LLMs for automated evaluation, but many methods fall short on alignment or explainability — let’s dive in! 🌊

🧑‍⚖️How well can LLMs summarize complex legal documents? And can we use LLMs to evaluate? Excited to be in Albuquerque presenting our paper this afternoon at @naaclmeeting 2025!
