Impressive work by the Glitter team: a new human-made benchmark for German gender-inclusive MT with long passages and multiple inclusive approaches + experiments showing that MT systems and LLMs still fall short in generating inclusive outputs.

Super interesting paper by Subramonian et al: "Agree to Disagree? A Meta-Evaluation of LLM Misgendering" arxiv.org/abs/2504.17075
Turns out, misgendering is messier than just pronouns. I'd love to see this analysis extended to grammatical gender languages! #LLM #AI #ethics @fbk_mt

Brilliant and necessary work by @zmprcp et al. about metric interference in MT system development and evaluation: arxiv.org/abs/2503.08327
Are we developing better systems or are we just gaming the metrics? And how do we address this?
Super (m)interesting! 👀
