🌎 Honored to give one of the keynote talks at #NAACL2025, and speak about the power of learning from many cultures as a key to the success of NLP. I believe this will not only help us build better systems, but also bring more innovation to our community, and drive more impact.

Very proud of my lab’s work to be presented at #NAACL2025, all aligned with this year’s special theme on NLP in a multicultural world 🌎 Come find us throughout the conference!

Just as the human species got better by learning across cultures and generations, #AI can advance by involving a wider range of people in its development. Excited to see this news piece on our #AAAI2025 work, with co-authors from around the world 🌎🌍🌏 🔗 cse.engin.umich.edu/stories/ai-w...
