Could there be a more beautiful venue (and acoustically encouraging) venue than the Cheng Kar Shun Digital Hub @JesusOxford .

[Creative Multilingualism @creativelangs]

We are here in the lovely Digital Hub space @JesusOxford with our Summer Showcase: “Language Diversity in the Digital Age”. Our first speaker, Dominik Lukěs @CTLOxford is challenging established paradigms of what LLMs can do for exploring and learning morphology.

@agosler @SuzanneJaneGrah @AnthonyPZhang @Dr_Heike_K @UniRdg_IoE @UniRdg_CeLM @TurnerTweeting @unisouthampton @OxfordCCT How can we make visible a text as a co-creation? This is the question Prismatic Jane Eyre attempts to address, in showing how all versions of a text exist in some form as part of the same cloud. But what can we learn by asking which words are important in different translations?
