Will they automatically use a higher register language because of their subordinate positions as human servers? By examining how robots speak in current media representations, the speakers will reflect on how AI linguistic coding and processing can impact the evolution of natural languages as well as language acquisition and translation by humans.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs x1xmvt09 x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u\" dir=\"auto\">Series sponsored by the University Personnel Development Committee (Research and Creative Activities Grant) and presented by the College of Letters and Science.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When Robots Rule the World Series Free Lecture at the Portage County Public Library James Berry and Vera Klekovkina, &#8220;Bias and the Language of AI&#8221; is a discussion of how [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":358,"template":"","meta":{"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[14],"class_list":["post-360","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tribe_events_cat-community-event","cat_community-event"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/360","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/360\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/358"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=360"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=360"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uwsp.edu\/calendar\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=360"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
