"Altogether our results suggest that the excitement around the empirical uses of LLMs is warranted, provided researchers guard against training leakage by using open-source LLMs in prediction problems and collect benchmark data in estimation problems."
An earlier abstract read: "The only way to ensure no training leakage is to use open-source LLMs with documented training data and published weights. The only way to deal with #LLM measurement error is to collect validation data and model the error structure. A corollary is that if such conditions can't be met for a candidate LLM application, our strong advice is: don't."

@jeanas I won’t leak the author, but my guess is that you can pick any #econometrics paper studying policy impact on CO2 emissions and you will find the same. Pick for example that one where you’ll find the following equation in the Supplementary Information: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adl6547
Without logarithms the equation would make sense, with logarithms it’s just bullshit.
The author also pointed out that Bayer and Aklin (2020, PNAS) use the same methodology.

Ars TechnicaThe fourth down thing really has come pervasive. I'm not familiar with the model used, but there are some serious data issues. Selection and endogeneity are enormous problems that may not be accounted for. Admittedly some of these issues have gone away as more and more coaches go for it on 4th down, but still. https://www.wsj.com/sports/football/detroit-lions-fourth-down-super-bowl-9b1555d5?mod=hp_lead_pos8 #nfl #4thdown #econometrics

github.comIntroducing LongMemory.jl: A Julia Package for Long Memory Time Series Analysis
I am happy to announce that after several months of getting to understand the language better, I have finally published my first Julia registered package: LongMemory.jl. This package is the result of my research on long memory time series analysis, which is a fascinating topic in econometrics and statistics. Long memory models are useful for capturing the persistence and dependence of many real-world phenomena, such as inflation, interest rates, volatility, network traffic, and environmental data.
LongMemory.jl makes it easy to generate, estimate, and forecast long memory models in Julia. It supports various types of models, such as fractional differencing, cross-sectional aggregation, and stochastic duration shocks. It also provides functions for testing the presence of long memory, computing the Hurst exponent, and simulating long memory processes. The package is fully documented and includes classical data examples, such as the Nile River minima.
The package can be installed easily from the Julia general registry. I have prepared a short video that shows how to install the package and generate long memory diagnostics plots for the Nile River minima dataset. The Nile River minima is a famous example of a long memory time series.
I hope you find LongMemory.jl useful and practical. I welcome any feedback, suggestions, or contributions to improve the package. You can contact me or open an issue on GitHub. Thank you for your interest and feedback!
