Is Natural Language Processing (NLP) Going in the Right Direction?: Getting started with NLP ethics
Year: 2022
Type: preprint
Abstract: In just a few decades, natural language processing (NLP) developed tremendously. By gaining access to extremely large natural language data and engineering scalable powerful architectures, language models managed to score well at a lot of tasks. As a result, NLP technologies are now being extensively commercialized, so much so that our everyday life is inescapably exposed to these systems. However, awareness about the risks of these technologies and NLP practice in general is not as well widespread. This raises issues regarding the use of such programmes and their harms. In this talk, I would like to discuss these problems. After some recap about modern-day NLP, I present some major issues pertaining to this field, and I sketch possible solutions.
