Majorities of Americans disapprove of President Obama's handling of foreign policy issues and think the US should take a less active role in solving world problems. Specifically, seven in ten Americans have an unfavorable view of Russia and Putin, and see Russia as a serious threat. On ISIS, majorities believe the US is losing the fight and things are going badly in Iraq and Syria. Americans support air strikes over ground troops against ISIS but are worried military action could lead to a larger war.

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.
