@vlachos_nlp @FEVERworkshop @j6mes @c_christodoulop @IamArpitMittal You were so impressed you logged into that video meeting twice in parallel? :)

[Yejin Choi @YejinChoinka]

It felt real special to participate in @FEVERworkshop and learn about amazing recent progress, e.g., @IAugenstein's keynote addressing various subcomponents of the whole pipeline of fact-checking, including "generating fact-checking explanations" (https://t.co/UQZ3TcZ93S) 1/N

[Andreas Vlachos @vlachos_nlp]

@FEVERworkshop happened yesterday #acl2020nlp ! Wasn't sure how the virtual mode would affect it, but I was pleasantly impressed with the talks and the discussions in the live QA sessions! Thanks to my co-organizers @j6mes @c_christodoulop @IamArpitMittal and Oana Cocarascu
