The Language System in the Human Brain
At #EMNLP2021 Evelina Fedorenko makes a strong case to defuse criticism that neural language models cannot "think". Neither can the human language modules in the brain, she argues, based on human brain studies. #EMNLP2021livetweet pic.twitter.com/WXiUZkWZTy

LT4All!? Rethinking the Agenda
#EMNLP2021livetweet
Should language technology (LT) be one-size-fits-all? In his keynote speech, Prof. Steven Bird argues that we should *not* assume the approaches and assumptions for developing LT apply to all languages & communities.
