This immense cost to our research careers is really not talked about enough.
2nd such story I came across today, many others over time, several of which are my own.

In AI, humans should not be in the loop (unless the goal is to have invisible workers or scape goats). Machines should be in the loop!

Thanks Steven Bird for your talk at C3NLP last year.

There has been much noise around the fathers and godfathers of Artificial Intelligence, but how about its mothers?
Let's start with Ada Lovelace, often regarded as the first computer programmer, and wrote the first algorithm meant to be run on a computer.

How can NLP/AI practitioners develop appropriate language technologies for local oral societies? Here are some key ideas from “Centering the Speech Community”, my #EACL2024 paper with Dean Yibarbuk, senior elder and law man from Arnhem Land, northern Australia. 🧵 1/10

We are excited to share that the 3rd HCI+NLP workshop will be collocated with NAACL 2024 in Mexico City.

The tentative submission deadline is March 13th.

The Deep Learning Indaba is a huge part of my life &words often fail me in the moment to try describe why. In January's Sauti Yetu, I had the chance to try capture it's beautiful spirit.
✨TL;DR✨I am because we are, and that is why the Indaba means so much to me.

Interested in interning with our Technology, AI, Society, and Culture (TASC) team in Google Research this summer, to study perceptions about AI and how they shape downstream impacts?

DM me, Aida Davani or Mark Díaz for details.

Open to PhD students graduating in 2025 or before.

If you’re working on LLM safety, check out SafetyPrompts.com!

SafetyPrompts.com is a catalogue of open datasets for evaluating and improving LLM safety. I started building this over the holidays, and I know there are still datasets missing, so I need your help 🧵

Incredible thread, curation by Technology, Law and Society! Can’t wait to revisit ones I’ve read, and delve into new ones 😎

Congrats, and thanks, Sunipa Dev for representing our research on cross cultural considerations in NLP evaluations at #IndoML symposium in Mumbai.

Congrats (and thanks) for representing responsible AI work at Google, Renee Shelby, Parker and Gia.
