Very excited to present this participatory auditing work that @queerinai.com did in EurIPS! Work featuring amazing people like @alissavalentine.bsky.social, @terezablazek.bsky.social, @gerasimoss.bsky.social, and many more.

Happy news: I'll be joining Eastern Michigan University as an Assistant Professor of Computer Science in Fall 2026! If you're an EMU student interested in my research, let's connect 👋 Will be sharing some fun #ACL2026NLP papers from my postdoc soon!

three first-author papers accepted

I don't understand why the ACL/ARR organizers think this is an appropriate way to communicate with area chairs... The peer review system is collapsing, and the whole system of science as we know it requires a rethink. But let's be kind to eachother in the process and not forget what we are here for.

I am still looking for responses for this survey, please RT.

Y'all better hire @jordant.bsky.social for postdocs and @willie-agnew.bsky.social & @dippedrusk.com for professorships. They are some of the brilliant minds who worked on these papers and they will be an asset everywhere.

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

Deadline approaching! Identity-aware AI workshop #LREC2026 identity-aware-ai.github.io, there is time until Feb 20th to submit a short or full paper, with many non-archival options too!

Impressive work by the Glitter team: a new human-made benchmark for German gender-inclusive MT with long passages and multiple inclusive approaches + experiments showing that MT systems and LLMs still fall short in generating inclusive outputs. aclanthology.org/2025.finding... ✨

🤔 Want to use REPPO (cvoelcker.de/projects/rep...) but hate jax? 🤔 😮 Want to have stable on-policy RL without filling your GPU with an enormous replay buffer? 😮 🤖 Are you a roboticist and just want your RL code to run? 🤖 🎉 Fear not, we started adding new REPPO versions! 🎉 github.com/cvoelcker/rs...

Today, the ACL Anthology switched to a new system for how author pages work. From now on, ORCID iDs will be the main mechanism for matching papers to the correct author. 🧵⤵️

Hi all, we are still looking for responses on our survey regarding names and name changing. Please spread the word about the survey!

@pranav-nlp.bsky.social and I are surveying researchers about naming and name changes in academia (especially computer science). If your academic name is / has been / might someday be different from other names you've used, please tell us about it here: forms.cloud.microsoft/e/E0XXBmZdEP

Please take 5-10 minutes to fill out this survey!

New at #EMNLP2025! ✨ Glitter is our benchmark for gender-fair German translation, full passages + 3 gender-fair strategies. Joint work with: @pranav-nlp.bsky.social, @jhackenbuchner.bsky.social, @gattanasio.cc, @a-lauscher.bsky.social Read more: aclanthology.org/2025.finding...

Are you at #ECAI2025 ? Then you should definitely check our workshop on ***Identity-aware AI*** happening tomorrow, room 0.4, starting 14.00 identity-aware-ai.github.io , organized by myself with @pranav-nlp.bsky.social @gingerinai.bsky.social @a-lauscher.bsky.social Neele Falk, Soda Marem Lo

We're surveying researchers about name changes in academic publishing. If you've changed your name and dealt with updating publications, we want to hear your experience. Any reason counts: transition, marriage, cultural reasons, etc. forms.cloud.microsoft/e/E0XXBmZdEP

I'm on the job market looking for CS/ischool faculty and related positions! I'm broadly interested in doing research with policymakers and communities impacted by AI to inform and develop mitigations to harms and risks. If you've included any of my work in syllabi or policy docs please let me know!

I'm conducting research on how ACL's peer review policies impact NLP research quality, career trajectories, and inclusivity within our community. I am running a survey, which would take around 7-10 mins to complete: forms.cloud.microsoft/e/j2jr9nH3X0 I would really appreciate insights from y'all!

🔔 My paper w/ @ninamarkl.bsky.social and @bjoernross.bsky.social is out: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.... We surveyed TikTok users on motivations for using phrases like "le$bean". Primarily associated w/ topics that are moderated on SM, but also desire to express community + be playful.

Hi all, we are organizing this fun affinity workshop at EurIPS in Copenhagen. Feel free to present any of your previously published works before or submit abstracts / mixed-media materials!

Most people who’ve known me more than 30 minutes will have heard me rant about how AI for social good is a corporate branding attempt at excusing AI. But the fact that the AI for Good summit censored @abeba.bsky.social is beyond disgraceful. thebulletin.org/2025/07/ai-f...

Now out in Nature: we analyzed 19,000 computer vision papers and the 20,000+ patents citing them and found that most CV papers are used in surveillance enabling CV patents. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Come talk to me about all things censorship / moderation on TikTok (and more generally algorithmic bias) #icwsm

Flattered and shocked for our paper to receive the #facct2025 best paper award.

I am at the data story workshop hosted by @martinmundt.bsky.social where we talk about AI as cake! We redefine Yann LeCun's famous analogy beyond just learning types. From ingredients to selling - we break down how AI really works and who gets left out.

This has happened to me so many times. I got assigned 6 papers to review within 3 days, and received threats from PC and AC that I would be flagged if I don't complete them properly. And after all this stress, I found out that each paper has received 5-6 reviews. So angry and upset with ARR rn.

latvia won the semifinal??? why the hell did all eurovision fans think it wouldn't even qualify.

If you were ever curious about the timeline of name changes as a Canadian immigrant in Germany, here's my data spanning 2 years for just the most important stuff. This does not include everywhere else I had to change my name, i.e., phone companies in Germany and Canada, public transit apps,

@pranav-nlp.bsky.social is speaking at the @i2sc.net about how seemingly neutral policies can cause harm when developed without input from marginalized communities, with examples from the AI Act and name change policies in academia

. @lgrobol.eu and I finally got our pronouns/neopronouns modeling paper up on arxiv ahead of NAACL! We conceptualize pronoun as speaker priors on the flexibility of pronoun use depending on community norms. Let us know your thoughts! arxiv.org/abs/2504.02973

I’m currently forced to prepare a presentation in a given MS Powerpoint template, and words can’t describe how hilariously terrible the experience is. Completely impossible to paste text and tables from another document without the styling being all over the place, and no obvious way to fix it.
