at @NeuralGen panel, I mentioned in the 80s, Joshi & Webber wrote abt ethics NLG, per the image, but couldn't remember cite & promised to tweet it's here: aclweb.org/anthology/P84-… (& sorry Ralph for forgetting you!) i learned about this from Smiley et al aclweb.org/anthology/pape…
@NeuralGen @NAACLHLT thanks for inviting me! talk was covering joint work with @raosudha89, Trista Cao, Sean Welleck, @xkianteb and @kchonyc.... who all did all the hard work!
.@NeuralGen poster session: @mdigangiPA presenting a new method for augmenting training data for neural text simplification using weak supervision @DH_FBK @ziorufus @sara_hlt @Turchi_Marco @negri_teo @mdigangiPA #NeuralGen2019
And this is the end of #neuralgen2019 at #naacl2019 Thanks to all speakers, authors, organizer, reviewers, live-tweeters and... our great audience! 👏 Check the other exciting events coming in the field of language generation👇
Pretrained large language models (GPT-2, BERT, etc) are going to make it easier to work on some exiting things that were previously inaccessible or too expensive. But we don’t really know what’s in them or how much prejudicial bias they contain.
Only 30% of audience at natural language generation workshop admit to taking an ethics course. Shocked. Don’t undergrad CS degree programs require a general ethics course? (tho most general undergrad CS courses are not very good to begin with)
Graham recommends that everyone read The ethics of persuasion. Sasha: we should have concensus in the community and not simply listen to what companies say
Join us for an amazing panel @NeuralGen workshop
Graham asks audience how many people took ethics classes. 3% say yes. Graham: Well that's the problem. On point!
#NeuralGen2019 panel topic switching to ethics. Yejin: to study fake news detection, we need to study fake news generation.
Yejin Choi (@YejinChoinka) about pretraining at the #NeuralGen2019 panel: in Academia we are just waiting around until companies give us the next sesame street character. They should just give us more GPUs and TPUs! #NAACL2019

Hi all. I’ve posted my slides from my talk today dropbox.com/s/2o8enj7amaxx… Topics covered: (1) the potential benefits of narrative AI systems, (2) historical perspectives on story generation, (3) machine learning for story generation, (4) controlling neural text generation systems
I’ll be giving an invited talk Friday at the #NAACL2019 workshop on Narrative Understanding sites.google.com/view/narrative…
New slides: "Pretraining for Generation" at #neuralgen2019 bit.ly/2K3S14G … . Includes overview of methods and new gpt-2 experiments on "pseudo-self attention".pic.twitter.com/dZabLoJrf9 - x.com/srush_nlp/stat… #Analytics thanks @RichardEudes

@_dmh @NeuralGen Yeah I realize this. Plus different standards around the world. Still, was expecting higher.
@mark_riedl @NeuralGen Also, not everyone in NLG comes from a CS background. Folks also might have had limited specific training (e.g. a workshop) as part of their professionalization rather than a full university course as a taught program.

@NeuralGen @NAACLHLT thanks for inviting me! talk was covering joint work with @raosudha89, Trista Cao, Sean Welleck, @xkianteb and @kchonyc.... who all did all the hard work!
I wish I had time to read all the cool new NLP stuff. No one told me the PhD would get BUSIER the longer I threw my body against it.
Hal Daumé II talking about how you can generate language non-monotonically: instead of generating words from left-to-right, the model will generate words in arbitrary order and arrange them in sequences. Ex: arxiv.org/abs/1902.02192 #neuralgen2019 #naacl2019 @NAACLHLT
Thanks @NeuralGen organizers for the amazing workshop. That was super well managed with amazing speakers and topics. See you next year at the better named follow-up!
@mark_riedl Ah, apologies for the typo. Points stands, we should be near 100%
Pretrained large language models (GPT-2, BERT, etc) are going to make it easier to work on some exiting things that were previously inaccessible or too expensive. But we don’t really know what’s in them or how much prejudicial bias they contain.
Only 30% of audience at natural language generation workshop admit to taking an ethics course. Shocked. Don’t undergrad CS degree programs require a general ethics course? (tho most general undergrad CS courses are not very good to begin with)
