📣𝗦𝗖𝗔𝗜@𝗦𝗜𝗚𝗜𝗥 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲: The 10th Workshop on Search-Oriented Conversational AI

🎯𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗽
Celebrating 10 years of SCAI, we explore advances in conversational AI, focusing on personalized conversational search, including a featured session of the iKAT shared task.

Sentences are partially understood before they're fully read. How do LMs incrementally interpret their inputs?

🚨 PhD position alert! 🚨

I'm hiring a fully funded PhD student to work on mechanistic interpretability at @uva-amsterdam.bsky.social. If you're interested in reverse engineering modern deep learning architectures, please apply: vacatures.uva.nl/UvA/job/PhD-...
