The Translation Initiative for COVID-19 (TICO-19): Translation industry players working together to create and share language resources for Covid-19. This was an amazing collaboration.
In this global pandemic, relaying information about how to stay safe in *every* language is crucial. In the past months the Translation Initiative for COVID-19 (TICO-19) came together with precisely this goal. (thread)

Inspiring #ACL2020 keynote by Kathy McKeown.
My key takeaways:
- bring language back to NLP
- address tasks that really matter
- analyze your input data & your output
- go back to models that do well on one task
Above all, “when they go north, we go south” —find your own path!
