Strategically Diverse Sampling for Self-Training

This work investigates strategic diversity, or substantive variation among approaches to a problem, as an alternative principle for constructing self-training data with two sampling methods: GROOT, a new method which constructs a hierarchical tree of approaches and samples distinct paths, and Verbalized Sampling, adapt...

MexHat: A Dataset for Hate Speech Detection in Mexican Spanish Videos

Ensuring online safety through content monitoring had raised Hate Speech Detection as a crucial task to be addressed. By essence the task demands the capture of contextual cues, which are essential for a precise understanding of the content's intent. Although automated detection approaches for the task have advanced si...

Muslim: A Deployed Arabic Voice AI Platform for Grounded Islamic Knowledge

We present Muslim, a production Arabic voice AI platform serving grounded, sourced Islamic knowledge to real users. Beyond a real-time voice pipeline (NeMo Arabic ASR, an OpenAI-compatible LLM endpoint, self-hosted TTS) and a deterministic multi-source retrieval layer routed across six Model Context Protocol servers, w...

Stale-Document Poisoning: When Outdated Retrieval Overrides Correct Model Answers

A temporal alignment failure, stale-document poisoning, is identified, in which outdated evidence makes a model wrong despite answering correctly without retrieval, and the same internal components also support broader comparison tasks, suggesting that temporal applicability can recruit a general reasoning mechanism us...

Identifying Scientists on X

It is shown that accounts are able to classify as ’scientists’ and ’non-scientists’ on two different datasets, reaching an F1-Macro score of up to 0.87 using Random Forests with linguistic features and up to 0.89 using a DeBERTa model in an ensemble setup.

PIA: A Personal Intelligence Agent Turning Health Conversations into Records and Records into Understanding

PIA, a personal intelligence agent deployed alongside a consumer health agent, is presented, a personal intelligence agent deployed alongside a consumer health agent that receives the agent's natural-language requests, decides for itself whether and how to write or read, and turns conversations into typed clinical reco...

RupeeBias: Auditing Demographic Bias in Indian Economic Guidance from Large Language Models

Individuals turn to large language models (LLMs) for guidance across a wide range of economic tasks, from comparing loan options and planning savings to deciding what raise to ask for or how much to charge for their services. LLMs are known to reproduce social biases, and biased economic guidance may influence what use...

Where a Model Sends Its Own Repeated Token

Black-box model identification works by scoring a model's response to natural-language prompts. One line of work feeds models a degenerate input -- their own token, repeated -- to find a failure mode rather than an identity. We take that input and ask where the model goes when it does not. For each token t, read argmax...

Do we need to answer that question? Salience and Answerability of Potential Questions in Naturalistic Dialogue

We empirically investigate Question Under Discussion based modelling in naturalistic dialogue by studying whether the salience of generated potential questions predicts their subsequent resolution. Building on Wu et al. (2024), we construct a dataset of 7,124 questions automatically generated from utterances and preced...

CG-Probes: Recovering Guardrail Directions from Patient Query Embeddings

Patient-facing AI assistants promise valuable support to patients, but incoming queries can pose medical risks. To create guardrails, we work with oncologists to define three ordinal risk axes: Medical Urgency, Psychological Urgency, and Topic Sensitivity. We propose Clinical Guardrail Probes (CG-Probes) to measure the...

Modeling Student Sensemaking with LLMs and Knowledge-Graph-Guided Inference

This work evaluates two mid-size LLMs on 23 richly annotated, expert-labeled episodes across prompting conditions that vary definitional scaffolding, reasoning mode, and turn structure, finding no single configuration performs best across all sensemaking dimensions.
