Excellent LLM research from @CaltechLCSSP's @rmichaelalvarez and @Jacob_Morrier in @polanalysis:

Currently in FirstView: In “Measuring the Quality of Answers in Political Q&As with Large Language Models,” @rmichaelalvarez & @Jacob_Morrier develop an approach for measuring the quality of answers in Q&A sessions using data from the Canadian House of Commons Question Period.

In case you missed it earlier this year, check out this American Journal of Political Science article from @BeaMagistro, @SBorwein, @rmichaelalvarez, @bartbonikowski & @PeejLoewen. This week's piece in @ForeignAffairs builds upon the work in AJPS.

This builds on our AJPS article comparing AI to offshoring. Key result: people are as/more responsive to price changes than job losses - consumer interests matter. Paper: doi.org/10.1111/ajps.1…

Their analysis shows that while some answers have only a weak connection to questions, they are generally relevant. There are also meaningful correlations between the quality of answers and the party of the MPs asking questions. Read the paper here: cambridge.org/core/journals/…
