Context

The shelf life of LLM findings

Authors

Owen Queen, James Zou

Venue

Zou Group, Stanford University

Published

2026-11-02

Owen Queen and James Zou revisit 50 published LLM findings across 20 models, using relative effect sizes and release-date trends to classify persistence. The interactive report presents methods and limitations and reports that 44% of tested claims expired and 34% weakened under its definitions.

Why I recommend it: The authors describe the work as preliminary; findings were not independently replicated for this listing.

Revealing Life Preferences Through LLMs (NBER Working Paper 35185)

Authors

Venue

NBER Working Paper 35185

Published

May 2026

Omar Abdel Haq, Amitabh Chandra, Tomáš Jagelka and co-authors use large language models to elicit and measure people's life preferences and trade-offs (May 2026).

Why I recommend it: An experimental method, not yet peer reviewed. Using AI to stand in for or interview people carries bias risks the authors themselves discuss.
