Dear Collegues,
'Language In The Human-Machine Era' (LITHME) is a research network
funded by the EU COST programme (https://cost.eu). LITHME is centered
around the relationship between language and machines, with the aim of
forecasting the impact that future technology may have on language, and
prepare research to that future. A COST Action is basically a networking
mechanism that fosters exchange across researchers coming from different
disciplines and countries.
During the COVID travel restrictions we sadly can't arrange large
in-person meetings. But COST also funds individual 'Short-term
Scientific Missions', where one researcher travels across borders to
learn and share knowledge. So for the time being we're focusing on these
short term individual visits where cross-border travel is allowed, and
ensuring COVID safety protocols during the visit and associated travel.
Intended for novel dialogue as outlined above, these visits should
increase understanding and preparation for language in the human-machine
era.
