Consistent Diffusion Language Models is headed to ICML! Work from my time with Microsoft Turing on generating text in fewer refinement steps.

From Fallback to Frontline got accepted at ACL! We ask when LLMs can better estimate a group’s perspectives than individual human annotators.

Our AI-assisted critical thinking paper received a Best Paper Honorable Mention at CHI! Glad to share this one with Harry and Ming.

Our work on AI-assisted critical thinking is accepted to CHI! Helping people question their own reasoning can reduce over-reliance on AI, but asks more of them too.

Received Special Recognition for Outstanding Review at CHI 2026. Grateful for the thoughtful feedback I’ve received over the years, and glad to return some of it.

Align When They Want, Complement When They Need! has made it to AAAI. One model to earn trust, another to offer complementary strengths—and a policy for choosing between them.
