Outreach

Beyond research and teaching, I engage with policymakers, professionals, educators and the general public on language technology and AI: through talks and interviews, through advisory and committee work, and through freely available educational material.

Talks & Media

I regularly give presentations and interviews about language technology and AI for various audiences. I try to keep the news section (at the bottom of the home page) updated with recent engagements.

Educational Resources

Knowledge clips on generative AI and language technology. In collaboration with VAIA (Flemish AI Academy), I created five knowledge clips that give accessible explanations of AI concepts for professional and educational contexts. ▶️ Watch on YouTube (in Dutch, with English subtitles).

Learning platform. My learning platform covers LLMs, NLP, translation technology and evaluation. Part of it is public; the course modules are restricted to enrolled students.
