## Research

- Thesis (UNTREF, supervised by Dr. Germán Rosati): benchmark of stereotypical bias in LLMs in Spanish, situated in Argentina and adapted from DecodingTrust. Each stereotype is checked for local relevance and kept, replaced, dropped or added; open-weight models are measured on agreement under three levels of pressure.
