Researchers have developed a new method using LLMs to identify and track social biases against people experiencing homelessness. They created a large dataset of online and offline texts, including social media posts and city council transcripts, annotated by both human raters and GPT-4.1. The study found that while LLMs can detect bias, they exhibit significant miscalibration, often misinterpreting housing-related vocabulary and question formats as indicators of NIMBYism. AI
