Really interesting new paper from some of my former @GESIS colleagues in "Big Data & Society": "From (almost) open to heavily restricted data access – The development of the Twitter/X developer policies"

Why do politicians always talk about "middle class," "immigrants," or "families"?

New research funded by @fwf and @dfg_public led by Dr. Lena Maria Huber (https://lenamariahuber.eu/, MZES, University of Mannheim) and Dr. Hauke Licht (University of Innsbruck), explores how politicians talk about social groups in campaign platforms and parliamentary speeches across 8 Western European countries.

UKP Lab Feb 3

🔍 Drawing on work at the intersection of #NLP and financial and social science applications, Dr. Chen highlighted why understanding LLMs as active intermediaries is crucial for assessing influence, accountability, and systemic risk in modern information ecosystems.

💬 We thank Dr. Chen for the thought-provoking talk and the discussion with UKP Lab members on language, mediation, and power in the age of #LLMs.

Happy 2026! 🎉

I finally built a tool I’ve had in mind for a while: FG's Research Radio. It generates AI-driven audio deep dives into #ComputationalSocialScience papers, pulling directly from my PaperPile reading list. It's been great for catching up on research during my commute. 🎧

I built it for myself, but the code is #OpenSource if you want to spin up your own instance using Google Gemini.
