- Sound Probabilistic Safety Bounds for Large Language Models
We propose a novel framework for computing rigorous bounds on the probability that a large language model (LLM) generates harmful output to a given prompt. We study a new application of the Clopper-Pearson confidence intervals to obtain probably approximately correct (PAC) bounds for this problem. A...
- PoTRE: Test-Time Reasoning inspired by Cognitive Heterogeneity
While Large Language Models (LLMs) excel at many tasks, they frequently struggle with complex reasoning that requires long-horizon planning and iterative error correction. Furthermore, standard single-stream prompting proves brittle when models encounter novel abstractions or rigorous domain constra...
- The Maskability Index: Predicting Task-Objective Alignment in Pretrained Language Models
Large-scale pretrained language models such as T5 and BERT have demonstrated strong capabilities for generating structured knowledge. However, their performance depends on how closely the prompting strategy matches the objectives used during pretraining. We introduce the Maskability Index (MI), a qu...

- Train the Model, Not the Reader: Decodability Supervision for Verifiable Activation Explanations
Natural-language autoencoders score explanations of hidden activations by reconstruction: an explanation is deemed faithful if the activation can be regenerated from it. The test is structurally insensitive to individual false claims: if flipping a claim does not change the reconstruction, the claim...
- Generative AI floods and dilutes the market for books
Generative AI can produce book-length works of fiction at near-zero cost. These books are often dismissed as low-quality ``slop'' that buyers will ignore, and are assumed to carry little commercial weight.
