🚨 Come work with us! A 3-year postdoc position is available in my group, focusing on gaze interactions in real and virtual environments. The job ad is only in German, since a certain level of German proficiency is required. Please share widely! @biodgps-dgpa.bsky.social

Very happy that this is out now!

A large-scale replication of scenario-based experiments in psychology and management using large language models - Nature Computational Science Researchers replicated 156 psychological experiments using three large language models (LLMs) instead of human participants. LLMs achieved 73–81% replication rates but showed amplified effect sizes an...

This looks interesting, social science studies with LLMs are more replicable and robust, but different from results from human studies. I still need to properly read it though...
