Really quite fascinating what @antlabjp just shared... (and still a little scary...) As an ELF researcher, the AI robots' language use presents and sounds 'hyper-US-American' to me though. Which raises all kinds of issues... intended/by choice or AI tool side effect? 🤔

Off soon to hop on the 🚆 to join the 12th #ögsd Tagung at Salzburg University for the day. Looking forward to discussing participation - multilingalism - digitalization in language learning

Safely made it back home (through the rain) after a wonderful @ELF14conference conference (which is just ending in Prague...sorry to be missing the last sessions)! A big Thank you to Veronika & Jiřina for bringing us all back together after such a long time! 🙂🙂🙂

Very happy to have chaired innovative papers by my #JKUlinz colleague @RieglerStefanie on pragmatic annotation and potenials of AI and by former Vienna colleague @vukovicva on syntactic alignment - nearing the end of full Day 2 @ELF14conference 🤓

Day 2 at @ELF14conference - here we go 😊 Off to an interesting and inspiring start listening to Alessia Cogo speak about ELF and critical language pedagogy

Great to see this! 😃👍 Shortly before EuJAL, the Journal of English as a Lingua Franca (JELF) started promoting this policy in 2012: degruyter.com/journal/key/je… Would be so good to see this stance against #nativespeakerism more often... 🤞

Hello academic twitter (happily ignoring name change for now 😉) - I'm back! 😃🤓 #appliedlinguistics #englishasalinguafranca #elfintigs #voice3online #corpuslinguistics #talkininteraction #digitalhumanities

Looking forward to joining the 48th JAECS conference at Mejio University virtually in a few moments to listen to Gaetanelle Gilquin's plenary and give an invited talk on #VOICE3online, ELF and LCR - should be a good discussion! 🤓 jaecs.com/conf_48/plenaryand…
