It's always fun to talk about our work on using LLMs to help with language revitalization (24:00-30:00)!

As always, I'm grateful for our language carriers, whose work (past and ongoing) makes research like this possible.

I'm featured in this @cnn.com piece on AI & language revitalization: shorturl.at/f9CHA. I appreciate CNN for spotlighting this important issue and think the article itself highlights the work well. I've been hesitant to post, though, because of how the title frames our languages as "old" & "dying."

Something I really appreciate about this article is how the author centers the voices of Indigenous researchers, not just in our hopes for what AI can make possible for language revitalization, but in our concerns too.

Deeply disappointing statement by USC President Carol Folt, whose refusal to sign the AAC&U letter puts @usc.edu on the wrong side of history and undermines its faculty, staff, and students who are up to the challenge of defending academic freedom.

Statement by President Folt on AACU letter
I deeply respect the Presidents who chose to sign AACU’s letter and those who did not. We are all committed to the mission and values of our universities and grateful for the American public’s support...

Two of my students presented their research at this year's LMU Undergraduate Research Symposium.

Diego Cuadros presented his work on building chatbots for endangered languages and Jason Chamorro presented his research with Gabriel Twigg-Ho on task scheduling in online, stochastic environments.

Trump to rename Mount Denali on first day in office
"we will restore the name of a great president, William McKinley, to Mount McKinley where it should be and where it belongs."

🧵I can't fathom the level of ignorance ...

Building machine translators for endangered languages is especially tough—not just due to limited data, but because accuracy is *crucial*. When learners lack native speakers or reliable resources to correct mistakes, even small errors can have outsized consequences.

In June, at the AmericasNLP Workshop @ NAACL, we introduced an LLM-powered approach to machine translation for low/no-resource languages. I'm so excited about this direction and can't wait to share the progress we've made since! #StayTuned #AI #LanguageRevitalization #IndigenousInSTEM #AIForGood
