The Hidden Tax on Talent [RR] We pride ourselves on living in a meritocracy, where the best ideas and the most talented people rise to the top. But what if the systems we use to judge talent are fundamentally broken? A series of s...

LLM‑Driven AI Agents Show Homophily‑Based Bias in Evolving Networks

Over 1 million link choices from Gemini, ChatGPT, Llama and Claude show all models follow preferential attachment and create homophilic clusters, especially by political and religious attributes. getnews.me/llm-driven-ai-agents-sho... #llm #homophily

Knowledge Homophily Found in Large Language Models via Graph Analysis

Researchers mapped LLM knowledge onto an entity graph, finding neighboring nodes share similar knowledgeability scores; a GNN predicts scores to target low‑knowledge triplets. Read more: getnews.me/knowledge-homophily-foun... #homophily #gnn

Homophily in Complex Networks: Definitions, Measures, and Models

A tutorial outlines how homophily—the tendency of similar nodes to connect—is defined, measured and modeled, covering hypergraphs and simplicial complexes. Read more: getnews.me/homophily-in-complex-net... #homophily #networkscience

Exact Generalisation Error Explains GNN Failures on Some Graphs

An exact formula for transductive generalisation error in linear GNNs shows higher homophily lowers error by aligning features with the graph Laplacian spectrum. Read more: getnews.me/exact-generalisation-err... #gnn #homophily

we expect negative #homophily to emerge.

In such #models, though, we also expect #discrimination between groups to be #stable in many cases

I heard the entire Podcast. Thank you.
What is the 2.4% effect? #homophily

how might unwanted political schism b/t, or #homophily on, X & Bluesky be remedied? Perhaps 1) tools to help bridge or crossread/post between; 2) Bsky #diversification features, tools, feeds, etc?
