- Oct 2912:30 PMLecture: "Are Latin American Bureaucrats Democrats? Politics, Technocratic Orientation, and Democracy"Scott MorgensternProfessor of Political ScienceUniversity of Pittsburgh Given their role in implementing policy and executive orders, bureaucrats are uniquely positioned to respond to executive overreach. Their attitudes toward democracy, however, have avoided significant scrutiny. This talk thus explores their commitment to democracy using an original survey of nearly 12,000 Latin American bureaucrats. To explain the likelihood of their commitment to democracy, the focus is on technocratic orientation, their alignment with the president, and the level of and change in the country’s democratic context.

- Oct 303:30 PMSoc(AI)ety Seminars Series: “Can LLMs Reason and Plan?”Join the Lucy Family Institute for Data & Society for the first session of the second cohort of the Soc(AI)ety Seminars, where we will host Subbarao Kambhampati, a professor of computer science at Arizona State University. Large Language Models (LLMs) are on track to reverse what seemed like an inexorable shift of AI from explicit to tacit knowledge tasks. Trained as they are on everything ever written on the web, LLMs exhibit “approximate omniscience”—they can provide answers to all sorts of queries, but with nary a guarantee. This could herald a new era for knowledge-based AI systems—with LLMs taking the role of (blowhard?) experts. But first, we have to stop confusing the impressive form of the generated knowledge for correct content, and resist the temptation to ascribe reasoning, planning, self-critiquing etc. powers to approximate retrieval by these n-gram models on steroids. We have to focus instead on LLM-Modulo techniques that complement the unfettered idea generation of LLMs with careful vetting by model-based AI systems. In this talk, Kambhampati will reify this vision and attendant caveats in the context of the role of LLMs in planning tasks. Light refreshments will be provided for attendees. RSVP is not required but it is encouraged. RSVP Here! Guest Speaker Bio: Subbarao Kambhampati is a professor of computer science at Arizona State University. Kambhampati studies fundamental problems in planning and decision making, motivated in particular by the challenges of human-aware AI systems. He is a fellow of Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence, American Association for the Advancement of Science, and Association for Computing machinery. He served as the president of the Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence, a trustee of the International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, the chair of AAAS Section T (Information, Communication and Computation), and a founding board member of Partnership on AI. Kambhampati’s research as well as his views on the progress and societal impacts of AI have been featured in multiple national and international media outlets. He can be followed on Twitter @rao2z.
