My paper with Eunjong Kong on Korean "short tongue" pronunciation is finally out 🎉 Recently there has been more discussion of "short tongue" in the context of aegyo, a Korean cute speech register, and "short tongue" is one of its linguistic hallmarks. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Small update: I surveyed my class of 24 students, mostly from KS/MO and a few from NE, MN, and SD, and no one had heard of "whip a shitty", but 100% of them called a u-turn a "yoo-ey". But instead of "whip a yoo-ey" they said "pull a yoo-ey".

Something I didn't get to say yesterday: We heard over and over during the event about "human-centered" approaches to "AI". But if refusal is not on the table (at every level: individual students and teachers right up through UNESCO) then we have in fact centered the technology, not the people.

Found myself scrolling through old tweets this evening and this photo was a real nostalgia hit (ignore the date, it was around July 2020). This was my route to the "fancy" grocery store; I walked this path roughly once a week for 8 years. Yeonhui-dong was one of my favorite neighborhoods in Seoul.

Tinted car windows should be illegal. As a pedestrian it is maddening when I cannot tell whether a driver is looking in my direction and has noticed me standing there. Even as a fellow driver I find it frustrating and it seems just as dangerous.

How many times do we have to remind people: the chatbot *cannot* admit to *anything*. It *doesn't know*. When you ask it about itself, it generates its answer the same way it generates your request that it write an email. It takes what you tell it and responds in way to sound plausible.

Congratulations to Dr. Ayumi Nobuki, who successfully defended her dissertation today! Her dissertation was titled "Comprehension of an Implied Meaning in Children: Investigating a Role of Contrastive Particle in the Felicity Judgment of Sentences", and she was advised by Prof. Utako Minai. 🎉
