A bit of a mess around the conflict of COLM with the ARR (and to lesser degree ICML) reviews release. We feel this is creating a lot of pressure and uncertainty. So, we are pushing our deadlines:
Abstracts due March 22 AoE (+48hr)
Full papers due March 28 AoE (+24hr)
Plz RT ๐
ACL Rolling Review and the EMNLP PCs are seeking input on the current state of reviewing for *CL conferences. We would love to get your feedback on the current process and how it could be improved. To contribute your ideas and opinions, please follow this link! forms.office.com/r/P68uvwXYqfemn
Heads up for anyone who missed this: ARR has moved to 5 cycles per year and the EMNLP deadline will be in May.

Great job by Hugging Face and Thomas Wolfโs team: The Ultra-Scale Playbook: Training LLMs on GPU Clusters
One of the most interesting new research in the LLM space: introducing Large Language Diffusion Models. arxiv.org/pdf/2502.09992

Wat zou een grotere prioriteit moeten krijgen om LLMโs zoals ChatGPT veilig en betrouwbaar verder te ontwikkelen?

LLMs will have an impact on the field of sociolinguistics. The question is not if, but when and how. If you want to know more, this is a good read!
The National Conference on AI Transformations: Language, Technology, and Society organised by Utrecht University @utrechtuniversity.bsky.social was a success, and indeed Letiศiaโs @aicoffeebreak.bsky.social talk was very inspiring.

AI Helpdesk platform wants to help with this. We are looking for the right experts to answer AI questions and thus share scientific information in an understandable way. In this way, we hope to promote a well-informed use of AI in our society.
Many people are looking for reliable and easy-to-understand information about AI (or Artificial Intelligence). What exactly is AI? What is the social impact of AI? How can we use AI reliably? Finding answers to these and other questions is not so easy on the internet.
The AI Helpdesk is a platform in Dutch where everyone can get scientifically reliable and clear answers to questions about Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Will AI replace doctors? How can we distinguish between real and AI-generated data? We at the Utrecht Young Academy have founded the AI Helpdesk: a platform where everyone can get scientifically reliable and clear answers to questions about Artificial Intelligence (AI):
