Никто: ...
Абсолютно никто: ...

Марокканские власти: "Господь, у вас кто-то на слайдах показал карту Марокко БЕЗ ЗАПАДНОЙ САХАРЫ!!! Немедленно покайтесь, яйцеголовые, и больше никогда так не делайте, уважайте территориальную целостность!"

Все государства одинаковые, короче.

Но зато я теперь знаю про Марокканскую стену ("берма"), которая идёт по пустыне две с половиной тысячи километров, и отделяет... кхм... аннексированные территории от... кхм... не-аннексированных. И про минные поля. И про Сахарскую Арабскую Демократическую Республику знаю.
Возможно, это не тот эффект, на который рассчитывали марокканские менты.

📢 We’ll present our TACL paper “𝗔𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗴: 𝗥𝗲𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗼𝘅𝗶𝗰 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘀” at #EACL2026 🇲🇦

🔥 Key finding:
LMs generate less toxic output when they more strongly encode input toxicity internally

Tailored Emotional LLM-Supporter: Enhancing Cultural Sensitivity

Large language models (LLMs) show promise in offering emotional support and generating empathetic responses for individuals in distress, but their ability to deliver culturally sensitive support remains underexplored due to a lack of resources. In this work, we introduce CultureCare, the first dataset designed for this task, spanning four cultures and including 1729 distress messages, 1523 cultural signals, and 1041 support strategies with fine-grained emotional and cultural annotations. Leveraging CultureCare, we (i) develop and test four adaptation strategies for guiding three state-of-the-art LLMs toward culturally sensitive responses; (ii) conduct comprehensive evaluations using LLM-as-a-Judge, in-culture human annotators, and clinical psychologists; (iii) show that adapted LLMs outperform anonymous online peer responses, and that simple cultural role-play is insufficient for cultural sensitivity; and (iv) explore the application of LLMs in clinical training, where experts highlight their potential in fostering cultural competence in novice therapists.
