Myra Cheng, a PhD student in computer science at Stanford University, will give a talk titled “AnthroScore: Measuring Anthropomorphism and Other Implicit Framings in Text” for the Digital Humanities Workshop Series.

Cheng’s work is grounded in critical theory and humanistic insights, and aims to mitigate algorithmic harms from language technologies and reveal the implicit norms that shape their development, from anthropomorphism to social biases. Visit the AnthroScore website.
