    Epistemic Subordination: Generative AI and the Infrastructure of Knowledge

    Gilad Abiri, Emanuel V. Towfigh

    cs.CY · cs.AI

    Generative AI does not merely produce biased outputs. It encodes the majority's way of knowing as the default infrastructure of knowledge itself. We call this epistemic subordination. The training process compresses the full breadth of human expression into a single probabilistic model whose statistical baseline reflects the languages, assumptions, and cultural frameworks of the dominant culture. Minority epistemologies are not excluded but...

    CentaurBench: Benchmarking LLM Capabilities on Augmenting vs. Automating Real-World Work Tasks

    Pattaraphon Kenny Wongchamcharoen, Kris Gulati, Min Min Fong, Abhishek Nagaraj

    cs.CY · cs.AI · cs.MA · econ.GN

    Most LLM benchmarks rank models on their ability to automate work tasks. In practice, however, models are often used to assist other (human or LLM) agents. The question that drives model selection is therefore not only which model produces the best output, but which model most improves the work of another (weaker) agent. We introduce a unified framework that evaluates the capability of models to automate and augment another agent's...
