Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as proxies for computational social analysis, yet faithfully representing the "thick descriptions" (Geertz, 1973) of human communities remains a critical challenge. Current evaluations often reduce social identity to static labels, sidelining how real-world groups navi...
Agents increasingly modify the procedures by which they solve tasks and improve themselves. Autonomy over improvement, gains in practical capability, and enlargement of computational reach are distinct properties. We develop an oracle-relative model with mutable solvers, evaluators, and improvers. Uniform simulation ke...
Understanding how humans and artificial intelligence systems predict and plan by interacting with their environment is a fundamental challenge at the intersection of neuroscience and machine learning. Most brain-encoding studies focus on aligning artificial models with brain activity during language comprehension or pa...
Learning latent representations from temporal, multimodal, and partially observed data requires specifying what information a latent state should retain, discard, and organize. Existing approaches encode these requirements through heterogeneous objectives, making methods difficult to compare and learned representations...

Model providers increasingly release the weights of large language models. Although these models are safety-aligned before release, their safeguards can often be removed by fine-tuning on harmful data. A growing class of defenses aims to make alignment robust to such malicious fine-tuning, but these defenses are typica...
Discrete diffusion language models (DLMs) generate text by iteratively denoising all positions in parallel, offering an alternative to autoregressive models. Controlled generation methods for DLMs, imported from autoregressive models, apply uniform intervention at every denoising step. We show this uniform schedule is...
Reliable text generation is critical for deploying large language models (LLMs) in real-world applications, particularly in high-stakes domains such as medicine. To improve factual reliability, various inference-time methods have been proposed, including logit-level methods that modify token probability distributions a...
Active vision -- where a policy controls its own gaze during manipulation -- has emerged as a key capability for imitation learning, with multiple independent systems demonstrating its benefits in the past year. Yet there is no shared benchmark to compare approaches or quantify what active vision contributes, on which...
How can an arbitrary attribution method be generalized from first principles to capture interactions? We answer this with the metagame, a conceptual framework for quantifying second-order interaction effects of model explanations. We cast the attribution value $\phi_i$ of feature $i$ as a cooperative game among the oth...
Machine Learning (ML) has transformed many scientific fields, yet key applications still lack standardized benchmarks. Raman spectroscopy, a widely used technique for non-invasive molecular analysis, is one such field where progress is limited by fragmented datasets, inconsistent evaluation, and models that fail to cap...
Human behavior is difficult to observe continuously at scale, yet it leaves measurable traces in everyday device use. We test whether encrypted smartphone network traffic---a ubiquitous, always-on, passive sensing modality---can passively capture behavioral patterns related to sleep, stress, and loneliness. We model sh...
Partial driving automation creates a tension: drivers remain legally responsible while being less active in control. Meaningful human control (MHC), a normative framework that can potentially address this tension, proposes that automated systems are designed to track relevant human reasons and that humans should at all...
Announcing Gemini 4 Argon, our frontier model for real-world coding, enterprise knowledge work and cyber defense, rolling out soon.
With $2.1 million funding from Google.org, the open-source Public Transit Intelligence Hub will unify public transit monitoring, operations, and passenger communication.
We’re on a journey to advance and democratize artificial intelligence through open source and open science.
Professor Sherry Turkle’s new book, “Artificial Intimacy,” offers a withering critique of chatbots and the antisocial dynamics she believes they encourage.
