  1. Okay, here's a question about #LLM hallucination:

    Anecdotally speaking, just a small amount of the false information I encounter using LLMs are produced as a direct response to my query.

    There seems to be much higher chance of misinformation when the LLM gives supplemental context around the main query.

    Is this a known phenomenon? If no, I might start a project on the topic.

  3. Hi y'all interested in a tenure-track assistant professorship in #linguistics / #psycholinguistics / #NLP / #compling etc? There's a national competition in Sweden for funding for a position for which you need to be nominated to apply. If you have <5yr PhD age, please email or DM me with a link to a web site/CV. The catch is, I need to nominate someone (for the first selection) before 8am on Monday in Sweden. Pass it on.

  4. I 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 #retrocomputing ;-)

  9. As 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 #LLM. It's just a mathematical language model.

  11. I wonder how #hashtags would have been developed differently if they had been invented and popularised by people speaking a #language 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 '#Pilzen', because '#Pilzen' is a different hashtag from '#Pilze'. Let alone #Pilzes and #Pilz.

    Would we tag things with #SemanticWeb URIs?

  13. 🇬🇧 Hey there!

    I'm #newHere at the Localization Café. ☕

    I have been working as a freelancer for some time, translating and localising what mostly ends up being #videoGames. My language pair is #English and #German.

    Outside my #freelancing work, I am a #linguistics and #compLing student who is currently finishing up my dual degree.

    In the future I would like to work as an in-house localisation worker in the #gaming industry; fingers crossed, since #gamedev is a difficult field to get into! :)

  28. An #introduction to you lovely people here in #mastodon is long overdue now:
    I'm currently a #PhD candidate, research assistant, and associate lecturer at #LancasterUniversity.
    I love all things #corpuslinguistics, #stats, and interpretable #CompLing.
    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 🧠
