Prof. Emily M. Bender(she/her)My #acl2024nlp Presidential Address is now publicly available. If you saw the slides & discussion of them in August, especially, please have a listen to the actual talk. It starts at about 43'50" in this video:
Carolannie@emilymbender it looks like 44'50"
@carolannie Ah, yeah -- I think I was seeing "40:50" remaining at the point that Claire starts her introduction. Will edit my post.
@emilymbender I noted this on Bluesky too
Anthony@emilymbender@dair-community.social Thank you for sharing this video. I read your slides when you posted those, but hearing you speak, and hearing the questions and how you answered them adds considerably to the experience.
shajithchacko@emilymbender Thank you for posting this. Even as “just” an industry person within an industry very much in the current of the AI trend and trying to stay moored to reality, this was a concise and useful way to think about current language technology.
@shajith Thank you! I'm glad you found it useful.
Marc Schulder@emilymbender I missed that you now hold the presidency. Congrats!
