Sequence data is ubiquitous in economics — job histories in labor economics, diagnosis and treatment sequences in health economics, strategic interactions in game theory. Generative sequence models can learn to predict these sequences well, but their complexity makes it hard to extract interpretable economic insights from their predictions.

Abstract:
The rapid emergence of generative AI technologies has been shaped by a wave of early excitement and hope for a broad range of use cases. Yet, the impacts of the latest models on historically marginalized communities is still relatively understudied, including the potential for sociotechnical harm.
In this session, the speakers present a line of research uncovering intersectional biases in generative language models when they are used for open-ended writing, drawing connections between their synthetic text outputs and known linguistic patterns that have psychosocial impacts for diverse learners in educational settings.
