I am a first-year PhD student at the Language Technologies Institute at CMU working with Maarten Sap Markdown Monster icon . I am interested in socially intelligent human language technology. More specifically (yet still vague), I am interested in the following Qs:

How do we define and build language technology that interacts with humans/society positively?
How do we create better (socially) grounded language technology with commonsense?
How does (social) language intelligence emerge through human language communication?
