Talk Abstract:
In this talk, I will explore the challenges and concerns surrounding privacy in natural language processing (NLP) and present potential solutions to address them. I will discuss the use of anonymization and differential privacy techniques to protect sensitive information while still enabling the training of accurate NLP models. Additionally, I will emphasize the importance of considering legal and ethical implications when implementing privacy-preserving solutions in NLP.
