Exploring How Language, Society, and AI Interact in Modern NLP Systems

We are pleased to welcome Valentin Hofmann as a Principal Investigator.

Valentin Hofmann is a Junior Professor for Information and Language Processing Using AI Methods at LMU Munich. His research combines machine learning with insights from linguistics and the social sciences to better understand and address limitations in natural language processing systems. He currently focuses on large language models, particularly on tokenization, sociolinguistic grounding, and bias.

Before joining LMU, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the Allen Institute for AI and the University of Washington. He completed his DPhil (PhD) at the University of Oxford and LMU Munich.
