Come to my keynote tomorrow at the first official @queerinai.com workshop at #NAACL2025 to hear about how trans languaging is complex and cool, and how this makes it extra difficult to process computationally. I will have SO many juicy examples!

Title slide: Processing Trans Languaging - Vagrant Gautam (they/xe), Saarland University, with a very brightly patterned background featuring colourful people and math symbols.

Check out our new paper on unlearning for LLMs 🤖. We show that *not all data are unlearned equally* and argue that future work on LLM unlearning should take properties of the data to be unlearned into account. This work was lead by my intern @a-krishnan.bsky.social 🔗: arxiv.org/abs/2504.05058

Diagram illustrating a hypothesis about knowledge unlearning in language models. The left side shows a training corpus with varying frequencies of facts, such as 'Montreal is a city in Quebec' (high frequency) and 'Atlantis is a city in the ocean' (lower frequency). The center shows a language model being trained on this data, then undergoing unlearning. The right side demonstrates the 'Forget Quality' results, where the model more effectively unlearns the less frequent fact ('Atlantis is in Greece') while retaining the more frequent knowledge. Labels A, B, and C mark key points in the hypothesis: A (frequency variations in training data), B (influence of frequency), and C (unlearning effectiveness).
