Fellow NLP and CSS researchers

I am concerned about all the anti-AI community on bsky and want to hear back from y’all

Especially those who just migrated

God I am so forgetful

I remember I saw a paper related to a work on some form of ethical framework or something on LLM from Greece in EMNLP 2024

The author took a photo of my name tag

But I don’t remember the paper name!!

Can anyone remind me what paper is it?

Or I might be hallucinating
