⌛Time doing that funny thing when suddenly there's less of it than you thought? We hear you! The #GITT2026 deadline will be extended with a few more days so you can catch up 😉 ➡️ NEW DEADLINE: 26 April 2026 (AoE) No extensions after this one, so go write! We're excited to see what you come up with!

Belgium not international enough? Fine. Our third and final keynote is none other than @katta.bsky.social from TU Wien 🇦🇹! Their work on Critical Access in Embodied Computing inspires #design and #engineering, ensuring that #technology reflects and supports #diversity - a perfect fit for #GITT2026!

At our last seminar, @maikezufle.bsky.social presented her work on Duplex Models, "Building Controllable Speech Systems"

With @malvinanissim.bsky.social and @vivipatti.bsky.social, we've been teaching ethics in NLP as a hands-on course across Groningen, Pavia & Turin. We wrote up the experience and received the ✨Best Paper Award✨ at #EACL2026's TeachNLP Workshop. Huge thanks to the organizers and all our students!

For our seminars at FBK, last week we had a great talk by @gsarti.com on Interpreting Context Usage in Generative Language Models

🎉 We’re very happy to welcome our new postdoc @lucacorbucci.bsky.social, who will be working on multimodal LLMs. Looking forward to the exciting research ahead! 🚀

Will #GITT2026 be worth it? If our brilliant keynotes are anything to go by...😉 Introducing @odettes.bsky.social Full Professor of Inclusive Speech Communication at 🇳🇱 Delft University of Technology. Human & automatic speech, combining technical x ethical x societal, just how we like it! Excited yet?

Did someone say 'more international keynotes'? 😉 #GITT2026 will have it all: Introducing Professor Sofie Decock (Ghent University, 🇧🇪), who works on the use and perception of #genderinclusive #language in professional communication, from newspapers to #interpreting ➡️ sites.google.com/view/gitt202...

At our last MT seminar, we had @jacquelinerowe.bsky.social from @edinburghuni.bsky.social presenting her work "Beyond Benchmarks? Measuring Gender Bias in Multilingual LLMs"

🎓 Today we attended the FBK PhD Day, and our amazing students presented their research lines: @apierg.bsky.social: gender-inclusive MT @linaconti.bsky.social: explainable speech translation @zhihangxie.bsky.social: long-form SpeechLLMs @uzumakidhairya.bsky.social: resource-efficient translation

Great seminar last week by Alessandra Teresa Cignarella @cerveza-inglesa.bsky.social "6,000 Papers, One New Dataset, and Several Confused LLMs: A Story About Stereotype Detection in NLP" #NLP #StereotypeDetection
