Morris Alper @malper.bsky.social · 12/10/2025I’m fascinated by the idea of a game like No Man’s Sky where infinite new civilizations could be generated dynamically with their own languages as the player explores the universe. 083
Morris Alper @malper.bsky.social · 11/10/2025The number of languages in the world just got a lot higher! At least constructed ones. Meet ConlangCrafter - a pipeline for creating novel languages with LLMs. A Japanese-Esperanto creole? An alien cephalopod color-based language? Enter your idea and see a conlang emerge. 🧵👇 33811

Morris Alper @malper.bsky.social · 14/06/2025Disappointing that arXiv doesn't allow XeLaTex/LuaLaTex submissions, which have the least broken multilingual support of LaTeX compilers. The web shouldn't be limited to English in 2025! 010

Morris Alper @malper.bsky.social · 20/12/2024Great news! BERT-like models are extremely useful and imo unfairly overlooked in the recent GenAI hype cycle. Looking forward to playing with this 000
Morris Alper @malper.bsky.social · 10/12/2024Bite into WAFFLE 🧇, our new multimodal floorplan dataset and paper - now accepted to #WACV2025! Work with Keren Ganon, Rachel Mikulinsky, Hadar Elor. More info below👇 110
Morris Alper @malper.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Playing with Suno AI song generation again, v3.5 seems to be more consistently catchy and better at (non-English) languages. This is not bad and funny how it sounds like a lot of Israeli prog-rock songs... suno.com/song/1e21b93...suno.comרובוט בודד by @noblekalimba435 | Sunoexperimental, rock, prog-rock, electric song.

Morris Alper @malper.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Omg, it's the new kiki-bouba! R and L are associated with jagged and straight lines respectively, in languages where <R> represents a trill. pubs.aip.org/asa/jasa/art...pubs.aip.org 162
