Jeff Schultz and Scott Kozak review the SEC and FINRA's efforts and discuss the issues invovled in assessing cybersecurity.

Do Linguistics Still Matter in the Age of Large Language Models.pptx

Slator- Language Industry Intelligence

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs). The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.
