This was a super fun NLP+HCI project that started as a summer workshop with undergrad researchers (co-first authors Alina Hyk and Kiera McCormick)! It mostly involved chatting with astronomers, including wonderful co-authors @jwuphysics.bsky.social, βͺ@errai34.bsky.socialβ¬, and others!

Our COLM preprint is up! arxiv.org/abs/2507.15715
tldr: we deployed a RAG slack bot and invited astronomers to use it. Through analyzing their usage and conducting follow-up interviews, we recommend better ways to build benchmarks for evaluating AI for astronomy (or science more generally)

This framing is all wrong
Our international students are not a βcrucial funding sourceβ
They are our STUDENTS
They are the reason we EXIST
We teach STUDENTS

Someone told me they used embedding debiasing methods in information retrieval settings, where the embeddings are being used directly with the same sorts of operations (e.g. cosine similarity) that debiasing methods target. But that one anecdote is all I've got
