In the months leading up to the 2024 U.S. presidential election, a team of researchers at MIT CSAIL, MIT Sloan, MIT LIDS, set out to answer a question no one had fully explored: how do large language models (LLMs) respond to questions about the election? Over four months, from July through November, the team ran nearly daily queries across 12 state-of-the-art models on more than 12,000 carefully constructed prompts, generating a dataset with over 16 million responses from LLMs, to help answer this question.

M.C. Escher’s artwork is a gateway into a world of depth-defying optical illusions, featuring “impossible objects” that break the laws of physics with convoluted geometries. What you perceive his illustrations to be depends on your point of view — for example, a person seemingly walking upstairs may be heading down the steps if you tilt your head sideways.
MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) has announced a new direction for its long-standing FinTech research initiative, now FinTechAI@CSAIL, to highlight the central role artificial intelligence is playing in shaping the future of finance.
Cybersecurity is no longer just a technical issue—it’s a strategic imperative as threats grow more complex and persistent. Technical leaders must understand how systems are constructed, how to detect breaches, and how to implement policies that protect long-term resilience.
