New research from Princeton and the University of Chicago shows that AI can develop prejudices in the hiring process faster than humans might.
AI can invent its own hiring bias — and it happens fast, new study finds
Researchers found AI models stereotyped job candidates more than humans did. A Phoenix jobs expert says AI interviews are already common here.

Language models’ ability to understand 3D space is improving, but they still lag behind in spatial reasoning.

A new benchmark from AI Lab researchers uses the Rubik’s Cube to evaluate how well language models handle spatial transformation over time.

📣 New preprint! We know humans are biased against AI-creativity. But what about LLMs, now often judging creativity in various contexts? Do they replicate, transform, or amplify this bias? We tested it. Turns out: AI is 2.5X more biased against its own work than humans. arxiv.org/pdf/2510.08831 🧵
