Diyi Yang

I am an assistant professor in the Computer Science Department at Stanford, affiliated with the Stanford NLP Group, Stanford HCI Group, Stanford AI Lab (SAIL), and Stanford Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). I am interested in Socially Aware NLP, Large Language Models (LLMs) and Human-AI Interaction, with a focus on how LLMs can augment human capabilities across research, work and well-being. My research goal is to design human-centered AI systems that are not only technically capable, but also meaningfully connected to how people think, interact, and collaborate.
Prospective students and postdocs, please check out this page on how to get involved.
