Let Me Teach You: Pedagogical Foundations of Feedback for Language Models
Natural Language Feedback (NLF) is an increasingly popular avenue to align Large Language Models (LLMs) to human preferences. Despite the richness and diversity of the information it can convey, NLF…
Chain-of-Thought Hub: A Continuous Effort to Measure Large Language Models' Reasoning Performance
As large language models (LLMs) are continuously being developed, their evaluation becomes increasingly important yet challenging. This work proposes Chain-of-Thought Hub, an open-source evaluation…
ARIES: A Corpus of Scientific Paper Edits Made in Response to Peer Reviews
Revising scientific papers based on peer feedback is a challenging task that requires not only deep scientific knowledge and reasoning, but also the ability to recognize the implicit requests in…
Perspective: Large Language Models in Applied Mechanics
Large language models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT and PaLM, are able to perform sophisticated text comprehension and generation tasks with little or no training. Alongside their broader societal…
Phone2Proc: Bringing Robust Robots Into Our Chaotic World
Training embodied agents in simulation has become mainstream for the embodied AI community. However, these agents often struggle when deployed in the physical world due to their inability to…
Visual Programming: Compositional visual reasoning without training
We present VISPROG, a neuro-symbolic approach to solving complex and compositional visual tasks given natural language instructions. VISPROG avoids the need for any task-specific training. Instead,…
The Tail Wagging the Dog: Dataset Construction Biases of Social Bias Benchmarks
How reliably can we trust the scores obtained from social bias benchmarks as faithful indicators of problematic social biases in a given language model? In this work, we study this question by…
LLM-Blender: Ensembling Large Language Models with Pairwise Ranking and Generative Fusion
We present LLM-Blender, an ensembling framework designed to attain consistently superior performance by leveraging the diverse strengths of multiple open-source large language models (LLMs). Our…
Multimodal C4: An Open, Billion-scale Corpus of Images Interleaved With Text
In-context vision and language models like Flamingo support arbitrarily interleaved sequences of images and text as input. This format not only enables few-shot learning via interleaving independent…
Evaluating the Social Impact of Generative AI Systems in Systems and Society
Generative AI systems across modalities, ranging from text, image, audio, and video, have broad social impacts, but there exists no official standard for means of evaluating those impacts and which…
