📢I am on the industry and academic job market this year! My goal is to enable human-AI teams to solve real-world tasks. I bring a unique skill set that combines ML, HCI, and domain knowledge in healthcare. Please reach out if you have any opportunity that would be a good fit!

For medical knowledge tasks, some think that for best results you need fine-tuning and prompts crafted by human medical experts . But no! This study Microsoft Research & Eric Horvitz shows that generalist #GPT4 beats specialized models *and* is less expensive. microsoft.com/en-us/research…

AI has uncovered new insights from medical data like disease risk & severity, transforming our understanding of health. But what if AI performance is worse than a human's? Start thinking differently, says #JameelClinic PI David Sontag to ProfDhar on Brave New World podcast 🎧

Mike finished his Ph.D. with me at MIT a year ago, and is now recruiting students in CS Johns Hopkins University. Consider applying to work with him - he's a great mentor and top researcher.

How do LLMs like #ChatGPT impact clinical note readability? LLM augmentations enhance understanding (from user study with 207 participants- 17% increase in understanding for augmentations vs control, p=0.002), but validation was needed to avoid errors: arxiv.org/abs/2401.09637

Learning to Decode Collaboratively with Multiple Language Models We propose a method to teach multiple large language models (LLM) to collaborate by interleaving their generations at the token level. We model the decision of which LLM generates the next token as a latent

Thanks AK for tweeting our work! 🤝Co-LLM trains a language model to collaboratively decode with other LMs. It decides whether to invoke the other assistant LM for each token. By optimally combining the expertise from each LM, co-llm generation can be better than using

Co-LLM can help achieve better performance than using a single model alone. We experimented with co-llm generations at different frequencies for invoking the assistant model, and visualized the generations.

Excited to present our work at #ICML2024, “Prediction-powered Generalization of Causal Inferences.” Limited external validity of randomized controlled trials (RCT) is a big challenge to causal inference. We investigate how integrating data from observational studies (OS) can

No two cases of multiple myeloma are alike, making treatment decisions a challenge. In npj Digital Medicine, ASPIRE awardee David Sontag introduces a machine-learning model to help physicians estimate disease progression & treatment outcomes. #PrecisionMedicine

New preprint dropped! Times have changed since the IDSA released tx guidelines for uncomplicated UTI in 2010. We looked at a large claims database formatted into the OMOP common data model to see if the recommendations still hold. tl;dr They do 1/7 medrxiv.org/content/10.110…
