NLP and AI Researchers Affinity Social

This affinity group is for NLP and AI researchers with a prior background or interest in the humanities. As AI research becomes increasingly interdisciplinary - drawing from theories and methods from outside of computer science - it is important to engage with what the humanities have to offer in terms of theories and methods to study language, culture, narrative, subjectivity, mind, emotion, etc. Disciplines like literary and cultural studies, media studies, philosophy, and history have a great deal to offer in terms of studying, building and improving language systems. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): co intelligence and co-creative systems, narrative understanding, cultural analytics, literary NLP, AI literacy, AI ethics, culture and cognition, etc.
