#ICAME47 is officially over! A huge thank you to Andreas and his colleagues for the fab organisation! The next ICAME will be 18-22 May 2027 in… 🥁🥁🥁 Helsinki!

Apart from my annoying questions in some of the Q&As, I believe that Natalia Levshina is the first to at least mention the environmental impact of LLMs at the #ICAME47. Thank you! 🙏

The final plenary speaker #ICAME47 is Natalia Levshina! She begins her talk on the responsible use of AI for corpus annotation by reminding us that we’ve been using „AI“ long before the current hype but that the definition of the term is really a moving target!

The theme of the #ICAME47 conference is “A Confluence of Corpus Research in the Age of AI” so there are lots of studies using LLMs, but also plenty of mentions of good-old BERT models (which are arguably often better at the kinds of classifying tasks that are needed for corpus annotation). BERT was particularly well represented in @coopersensei.bsky.social's slides!

I submitted a poster abstract to the #ICAME47 because I thought this would be the most low-key format to present work-in-progress, but then there were only four posters and we each got a four minutes after today‘s plenary in the large auditorium 😱Definitely more attention than I had envisaged, but I think it went well. I was done at 3‘59! ⏱️ Lots of encouraging feedback and interesting follow-up ideas! ☺️

Day 3 of the #ICAME47 conference started with a beautiful ride across the Mosel river, an entertaining plenary by Jonathan Culpeper on examining Shakespeare's works with corpus linguistics methods, and four lightning poster talks. Looking forward to the rest! ☀️

Laurence Anthony is always a great choice for a plenary speaker! Opening the #ICAME47, Laurence presented some of the exciting new features he's recently developed for AntConc and his vision for the confluence of #GenAI and corpus #linguistics. I don't agree with everything, but I really appreciate the focus on local LLMs, his highly impressive, continuous development of free educational software, and his generally positive outlook on the future of corpus linguistics! A brilliant start to the #ICAME47!

The ICAME is an international conference about English corpus linguistics. Today is the pre-conference workshop day and I'm hopping between the difference workshops as I am not working on any of these topics at the moment, but I am interested in everything and looking forward to getting some methodological inspiration for my own research!

I made it to the #ICAME47 conference in Koblenz and it's fair to say that I’ve had less pleasant conference travel! 🚉 🚲
