the replication of results in clinical trials is important for informing treatment guidelines. Observational data improve generalizability beyond individuals who are eligible for and consent for clinical trials.

Toward LLM Self-Play Under Data Scarcity: Effectiveness, Generalizability, and Trustworthiness
The rapid development of large language models (LLMs) has been driven largely by scaling model size and human-curated training data, yet this paradigm is increasingly constrained by data scarcity and diminishing returns from human supervision. Self-play offers a promising pathway for autonomous dat…

Finally, I consider a number of potential objections to the arguments (and analyses) in the paper, including the idea that interpretability is actually idiographic, not nomothetic, as well as the idea that generalizability is not a concern if we can run automated interpretability suites.

A theory of generalizability is also itself of scientific interest: even ostensibly "idiographic" research on a given LLM is often informed by insights from the study of other LLMs. Knowing which population a given LLM sample stands in for, and how, is a helpful sign of progress in the field.

17/ This generalizability concern is just one small part of the paper. Check out the thread by @mbneff.bsky.social for a great summary of the other arguments.

Next theme: generalizability - can a framework built for one artifact type be applied to another? -- @nelmqvist.bsky.social -- "most popular coding language now is English" can we reimplement just paper + images (no code) @alex-lex.bsky.social videos are much better documentation for reproducibility

From the latest issue: Yahyavi & colleagues compare CREST-2 participants with patients undergoing carotid revascularization in real-world practice, finding substantial alignment in baseline characteristics and GDMT-related measures, supporting the generalizability of CREST-2.

3/ (b) during piloting, study design features (measures, stimuli, settings, etc.) are tested and selected. Features that lead to large/novel effects may be overselected for, which can harm the generalizability of final results. Reporting pilots can reveal such selection biases.

The idea was that by excluding untested people altogether, (only PCR counted), they would reduce confounders. In that respect, the logic is sound. It also reduces generalizability outside of those likely to be tested, of course.

But it provides extra support for COVID attribution in some cases.

"Achieving consensus on the definition of [acute-on-chronic liver failure] improves the generalizability of research across the globe"
Global Liver Societies Agree on One Definition of ACLF
Five international liver societies have reached a global consensus on the definition of acute-on-chronic liver failure, which will affect research and, eventually, patients.

Q&A - someone asked about transportability of models developed in the US and working outside the US

We need to talk about transportability (different from generalizability) more

11/ Note that the concern here is not false positives. These effects may be real and hold up in direct replications. The concern is generalizability.

Certainty of evidence was graded very low. Probiotics may reduce migraine severity and frequency; however, the heterogeneity of studies limits generalizability. (🧵 5/6)

Looks like Huckabee. Gives some credence to generalizability of physiognomy.

cautiously. However, the generalizability of these results was limited because the study was clinic-based rather than population-based. (🧵 10/10)
