@j-novikova-nlp.bsky.socialRuss Salakhutdinov and I were both at our first #COLM2026, so I asked him what he made of it. It reminded him of NeurIPS ten years ago, when you could get through all the posters! And he had good advice for early-career researchers.
@wiair.bsky.socialDo all language models learn things in the same order - even when they are trained on different data?
Emmy Liu gives the answer in the video. #WiAIR is covering COLM 2026 this week, with a new paper every day

@wiair.bsky.social🧠 Does training an LLM longer make it more aligned with the human language network?
In our latest #WiAIR episode, we spoke with Dr. Greta Tuckute about her co-authored paper, “From Language to Cognition: How LLMs Outgrow the Human Language Network.” (1/6🧵)
