Social 📸 Photography

Michael PiotrowskiI was just sent this photo, supposedly taken in 1994: Björn Beutel, developer of the Malaga language, and myself are working in the CLUE (Computational Linguistics University of Erlangen) lab.I’m a bit hesitant to tag this <a href="https://mastodon.acm.org/tags/retrocomputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#retrocomputing</a> ;-)<a href="https://mastodon.acm.org/tags/CompLing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CompLing</a> <a href="https://mastodon.acm.org/tags/NLProc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NLProc</a> <a href="https://mastodon.acm.org/tags/Erlangen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Erlangen</a>

LiannaAs long as you...(1) host and run it yourself, (2) it's open source, (3) it's not trained on art or personal data, (4) it's not constantly re-trained at extreme energy costs to be "up to date", (5) it's not advertised as an information source, therapy, search engine, artificial intelligence or anything else it's not,there's literally no ethical issue in <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/LLM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LLM</a>. It's just a mathematical language model.<a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/LLMs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LLMs</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/linguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linguistics</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/compling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#compling</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/computationallinguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#computationallinguistics</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/chatgpt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#chatgpt</a>

LiannaI wonder how <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/hashtags" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hashtags</a> would have been developed differently if they had been invented and popularised by people speaking a <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/language" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#language</a> with strongly marked cases.If I post 'Sauce mit Pilzen' (German for 'sauce with mushrooms'), and I would like to tag the mushrooms, I can't just go '<a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/Pilzen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pilzen</a>', because '<a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/Pilzen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pilzen</a>' is a different hashtag from '<a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/Pilze" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pilze</a>'. Let alone <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/Pilzes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pilzes</a> and <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/Pilz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Pilz</a>.Would we tag things with <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/SemanticWeb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SemanticWeb</a> URIs? <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/hashtag" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#hashtag</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tech</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/compling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#compling</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/computationallinguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#computationallinguistics</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/l10n" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#l10n</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/i18n" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#i18n</a> <a href="https://localization.cafe/tags/linguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#linguistics</a>

Nick MWhen I started in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ComputationalLinguistics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ComputationalLinguistics</a> / <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/NLProc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NLProc</a>, some of the stuff with word embeddings and topic modeling felt like kind of a stretch re: what we could do with language models, but at least the formalisms were interesting and it felt like there was an effort to treat it as exploratory and not "hey language models understand language!" Now it feels like the field has been co-opted by all the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MathyMaths" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MathyMaths</a> and <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TESCREAL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TESCREAL</a> bullshit, and I so desperately want to get back to real <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CompLing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CompLing</a>

I'm passionate about developing new, explainable methodologies and workflows so we can analyse (existing) linguistic data in new ways and further our understanding of language 🗣️ and the mind 🧠
