Over 6,000 of the world’s 7,000-plus living languages remain digitally disadvantaged. That might mean few websites exist in that language, for example, or keyboards don’t have the necessary characters. Language communities excluded from digital systems can only participate minimally in a world increasingly mediated by technology. They also can’t generate enough data needed to be represented in AI. And without access to AI, communities face further barriers to digital participation.Empowering digitally disadvantaged language communities requires holistic progress on a range of foundational language tools (from script encoding to keyboard layouts) and supporting language tools (from grammar checkers to accessibility features). Progress on this language digitization work is often slow due to chronic underfunding and a lack of coordination.AI has the potential to scale and accelerate language digitization. In recent years, scholars have increasingly leveraged AI — and especially natural language processing tools — to sidestep major bottlenecks in the field, particularly when it comes to compiling, organizing, and reviewing digital records.Details:Time: 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm PTLocation: Gates Computer Science Building, Room 119, 353 Jane Stanford Way, CA 94503.Advance registration is required to guarantee entry.We are happy to accommodate walk-in guests as space allows.
