Large Language Models: Behavioral Science Meets Computer Science

Recent advances in generative AI applications have captured the attention and imagination of investors, consumers, and organizations. For example, it took less than two months for OpenAI’s ChatGPT to acquire 100 million users, the fastest product adoption in history. At the same time, first- and second-order consequences of the deployment of this technology at scale are difficult to anticipate. Improvements in Large Language Models have been so fast, and the potential societal repercussions so profound that a broad cross-disciplinary lens is necessary to start making sense of the implications.

Psychology of Technology Conference

The theme of the conference was “The Psychology of New Media & Technology,” exploring how new media and technologies (e.g., VR/AR, AI, voice-assisted tech, information transmission across social media networks) are interacting to change the way people work, think, communicate, and understand the world around them. The conference brought together researchers across disciplines—including psychology, marketing, organizational behavior, economics, and computer science—who are studying how technology is changing the human experience. The event featured a poster session where 20 post-docs and junior faculty from diverse institutions presented their work on topics related to the uses and biases in interactions with smart devices, AI, voice-assisted tech, and information transmission across social media networks.
