Serendipity beyond stereotypes | Malvina Nissim | TEDxUniversityofGroningen


so you’ve just been told that I’m a

so you’ve just been told that I’m a lecturer and as such I get to teach but

lecturer and as such I get to teach but

lecturer and as such I get to teach but I also get to have really interesting

I also get to have really interesting

I also get to have really interesting meetings with very bright students about

meetings with very bright students about

meetings with very bright students about smaller and bigger projects and this one

smaller and bigger projects and this one

smaller and bigger projects and this one is one of those just from about a week

is one of those just from about a week

is one of those just from about a week ago now we were discussing some project

ago now we were discussing some project

ago now we were discussing some project that I would actually tell you about and

that I would actually tell you about and

that I would actually tell you about and if you look at it you will see some

if you look at it you will see some

if you look at it you will see some bright happy students and you will also

bright happy students and you will also

bright happy students and you will also see the standard laptops on on the table

see the standard laptops on on the table

see the standard laptops on on the table but you also see something which is a

but you also see something which is a

but you also see something which is a little unusual and if i zoom in you will

little unusual and if i zoom in you will

little unusual and if i zoom in you will see better now this just make sure we

see better now this just make sure we

see better now this just make sure we understand each other that this is not

understand each other that this is not

understand each other that this is not how I normally have my student meetings

how I normally have my student meetings

how I normally have my student meetings but this was actually brought by the

but this was actually brought by the

but this was actually brought by the students to celebrate a special occasion

students to celebrate a special occasion

students to celebrate a special occasion I knew nothing about when when I arrived

I knew nothing about when when I arrived

I knew nothing about when when I arrived when I entered the room and I was

when I entered the room and I was

when I entered the room and I was surprised I was actually very pleasantly

surprised I was actually very pleasantly

surprised I was actually very pleasantly surprised and I was surprised because

surprised and I was surprised because

surprised and I was surprised because this is not normal yeah this is unusual

this is not normal yeah this is unusual

this is not normal yeah this is unusual I don’t normally enter a meeting with my

I don’t normally enter a meeting with my

I don’t normally enter a meeting with my students and a bottle of wine and is

students and a bottle of wine and is

students and a bottle of wine and is sitting there and grasses are already

sitting there and grasses are already

sitting there and grasses are already poured and we’re all drinking happily I

poured and we’re all drinking happily I

poured and we’re all drinking happily I mean this is not how it normally works

mean this is not how it normally works

mean this is not how it normally works but what’s normal

but what’s normal

but what’s normal how do we define normal how do we do we

how do we define normal how do we do we

how do we define normal how do we do we find usual now I’ll just show you a

find usual now I’ll just show you a

find usual now I’ll just show you a couple of things and I know that I might

couple of things and I know that I might

couple of things and I know that I might actually travel on dangerous grounds and

actually travel on dangerous grounds and

actually travel on dangerous grounds and surf and dangerous waters but let’s

surf and dangerous waters but let’s

surf and dangerous waters but let’s let’s see how he goes now this is also a

let’s see how he goes now this is also a

let’s see how he goes now this is also a pretty general statement and you might

pretty general statement and you might

pretty general statement and you might find lots of counter examples probably

find lots of counter examples probably

find lots of counter examples probably not in my case but it’s clear actually

not in my case but it’s clear actually

not in my case but it’s clear actually if you search Google with this you will

if you search Google with this you will

if you search Google with this you will come up with almost all counter examples

come up with almost all counter examples

come up with almost all counter examples another general very general statement

another general very general statement

another general very general statement is this and it’s true

is this and it’s true

is this and it’s true it’s true I might behave a little

it’s true I might behave a little

it’s true I might behave a little tonight but I am Italian and I use my

tonight but I am Italian and I use my

tonight but I am Italian and I use my hands a lot when I talk so there is this

hands a lot when I talk so there is this

hands a lot when I talk so there is this is another big generalization yeah which

is another big generalization yeah which

is another big generalization yeah which is true to a point and how does it come

is true to a point and how does it come

is true to a point and how does it come about it come about by what we normally

about it come about by what we normally

about it come about by what we normally do and for what I’m interested in and

do and for what I’m interested in and

do and for what I’m interested in and I’m gonna tell you in a second it also

I’m gonna tell you in a second it also

I’m gonna tell you in a second it also come about by what we normally say and

come about by what we normally say and

come about by what we normally say and what we normally write because what I’m

what we normally write because what I’m

what we normally write because what I’m interested in is actually language and

interested in is actually language and

interested in is actually language and words and more specifically I’m

words and more specifically I’m

words and more specifically I’m interested in how we can actually teach

interested in how we can actually teach

interested in how we can actually teach machines to process the language that we

machines to process the language that we

machines to process the language that we speak and that we write like can we

speak and that we write like can we

speak and that we write like can we teach a machine to understand like

teach a machine to understand like

teach a machine to understand like English and Italian Dutch and so on I

English and Italian Dutch and so on I

English and Italian Dutch and so on I mean you probably all use Google

mean you probably all use Google

mean you probably all use Google Translate so that’s what I do is also

Translate so that’s what I do is also

Translate so that’s what I do is also behind that kind that kind of stuff and

behind that kind that kind of stuff and

behind that kind that kind of stuff and why does this have to do with

why does this have to do with

why does this have to do with generalizations well because to teach

generalizations well because to teach

generalizations well because to teach machines something they need to learn

machines something they need to learn

machines something they need to learn from very general patterns and in this

from very general patterns and in this

from very general patterns and in this specific context what I want to tell you

specific context what I want to tell you

specific context what I want to tell you about is teaching machine to do a very

about is teaching machine to do a very

about is teaching machine to do a very tricky generalization which is being

tricky generalization which is being

tricky generalization which is being able to tell from a piece of text who

able to tell from a piece of text who

able to tell from a piece of text who the author is but not just like

the author is but not just like

the author is but not just like specifically who the author is

specifically who the author is

specifically who the author is I want to profile the author so what

I want to profile the author so what

I want to profile the author so what does he mean profiling so you give me a

does he mean profiling so you give me a

does he mean profiling so you give me a text I give it to the Machine and I want

text I give it to the Machine and I want

text I give it to the Machine and I want the machine to be able to tell whether

the machine to be able to tell whether

the machine to be able to tell whether it was written say by a male or a female

it was written say by a male or a female

it was written say by a male or a female or a younger person or an older person

or a younger person or an older person

or a younger person or an older person we can also try to profile like even

we can also try to profile like even

we can also try to profile like even more difficult things for example

more difficult things for example

more difficult things for example personality and so but I’ll stick to

personality and so but I’ll stick to

personality and so but I’ll stick to gender and age especially gender

gender and age especially gender

gender and age especially gender and what is the underlying assumption

and what is the underlying assumption

and what is the underlying assumption for this and this is why generalizations

for this and this is why generalizations

for this and this is why generalizations are interesting so if I can teach a

are interesting so if I can teach a

are interesting so if I can teach a machine to tell whether a text was

machine to tell whether a text was

machine to tell whether a text was written by a female or a male that means

written by a female or a male that means

written by a female or a male that means that males and females write texts

that males and females write texts

that males and females write texts differently now is this true how many of

differently now is this true how many of

differently now is this true how many of you think this is true ha ha now what I

you think this is true ha ha now what I

you think this is true ha ha now what I did to start with there is a tool at the

did to start with there is a tool at the

did to start with there is a tool at the unit that was developed at the

unit that was developed at the

unit that was developed at the University of Trento in Italy that takes

University of Trento in Italy that takes

University of Trento in Italy that takes a very very large collection of tweets

a very very large collection of tweets

a very very large collection of tweets and you can just check what are frequent

and you can just check what are frequent

and you can just check what are frequent words used by male or females

words used by male or females

words used by male or females now again careful because this is

now again careful because this is

now again careful because this is something that could look a little

something that could look a little

something that could look a little dangerous let’s check one now this is

dangerous let’s check one now this is

dangerous let’s check one now this is the tool Twitter life now this is now

the tool Twitter life now this is now

the tool Twitter life now this is now made up yeah this is a collection of

made up yeah this is a collection of

made up yeah this is a collection of tweets and it looks like men tend to

tweets and it looks like men tend to

tweets and it looks like men tend to talk more about beer than women and

talk more about beer than women and

talk more about beer than women and women tend to talk more about tea than

women tend to talk more about tea than

women tend to talk more about tea than men now ha stereotypical is this now

men now ha stereotypical is this now

men now ha stereotypical is this now waste because it gets worse or better

waste because it gets worse or better

waste because it gets worse or better these are other words that I put in you

these are other words that I put in you

these are other words that I put in you can try a lot so you can just actually

can try a lot so you can just actually

can try a lot so you can just actually see how you go from ballet to volleyball

see how you go from ballet to volleyball

see how you go from ballet to volleyball to football to tech and now the gender

to football to tech and now the gender

to football to tech and now the gender balance is getting really skewed here so

balance is getting really skewed here so

balance is getting really skewed here so there’s another study that was done on

there’s another study that was done on

there’s another study that was done on Facebook and some researchers collected

Facebook and some researchers collected

Facebook and some researchers collected female pages on Facebook and Mail pages

female pages on Facebook and Mail pages

female pages on Facebook and Mail pages on Facebook and they built word clouds

on Facebook and they built word clouds

on Facebook and they built word clouds you probably have seen word clouds you

you probably have seen word clouds you

you probably have seen word clouds you can visualize the most frequent words

can visualize the most frequent words

can visualize the most frequent words like bigger and the less frequent words

like bigger and the less frequent words

like bigger and the less frequent words smaller now I’m gonna show you a cloud

smaller now I’m gonna show you a cloud

smaller now I’m gonna show you a cloud now that was built by some researchers

now that was built by some researchers

now that was built by some researchers on Facebook pages and you can try to

on Facebook pages and you can try to

on Facebook pages and you can try to raise your hand if you think this is a

raise your hand if you think this is a

raise your hand if you think this is a female cloud okay I’m gonna show it now

female cloud okay I’m gonna show it now

female cloud okay I’m gonna show it now how many of you think a female cloud

how many of you think a female cloud

how many of you think a female cloud there you go now I’m going to show you

there you go now I’m going to show you

there you go now I’m going to show you the male cloud but quick yeah and you

the male cloud but quick yeah and you

the male cloud but quick yeah and you probably see why I know I know I know

probably see why I know I know I know

probably see why I know I know I know and I swear this isn’t made up this is

and I swear this isn’t made up this is

and I swear this isn’t made up this is real data so it was actually curious

real data so it was actually curious

real data so it was actually curious because this is so stereotypical that

because this is so stereotypical that

because this is so stereotypical that it’s kind of scary and so I was really

it’s kind of scary and so I was really

it’s kind of scary and so I was really curious and I found out something that

curious and I found out something that

curious and I found out something that that I thought was actually interesting

that I thought was actually interesting

that I thought was actually interesting which is this I went to check how much

which is this I went to check how much

which is this I went to check how much the word stereotype is used by female

the word stereotype is used by female

the word stereotype is used by female email totally gender balanced I thought

email totally gender balanced I thought

email totally gender balanced I thought it was very interesting now why do we

it was very interesting now why do we

it was very interesting now why do we kind of use this information so if if

kind of use this information so if if

kind of use this information so if if it’s true that men and women use these

it’s true that men and women use these

it’s true that men and women use these different words in such a clear way then

different words in such a clear way then

different words in such a clear way then if I tell the Machine come on just look

if I tell the Machine come on just look

if I tell the Machine come on just look at the words that are used and I give it

at the words that are used and I give it

at the words that are used and I give it a lot of data to learn from it ill

a lot of data to learn from it ill

a lot of data to learn from it ill eventually come up with its own

eventually come up with its own

eventually come up with its own generalizations now mind you we are

generalizations now mind you we are

generalizations now mind you we are giving machine data we are not telling

giving machine data we are not telling

giving machine data we are not telling machine like look for beer or look for

machine like look for beer or look for

machine like look for beer or look for tea or look for tech we just give it a

tea or look for tech we just give it a

tea or look for tech we just give it a lot of data and when the machine will

lot of data and when the machine will

lot of data and when the machine will know this date is associated with mail

know this date is associated with mail

know this date is associated with mail this state is associated with female and

this state is associated with female and

this state is associated with female and then it will make its own

then it will make its own

then it will make its own generalizations okay now we don’t only

generalizations okay now we don’t only

generalizations okay now we don’t only use words we also use some other hints

use words we also use some other hints

use words we also use some other hints now for example one thing that you might

now for example one thing that you might

now for example one thing that you might not know what is the difference between

not know what is the difference between

not know what is the difference between these two

these two

these two yeah their nose yeah how many of you use

yeah their nose yeah how many of you use

yeah their nose yeah how many of you use that one with the nose ha now you might

that one with the nose ha now you might

that one with the nose ha now you might not know that at least in the social

not know that at least in the social

not know that at least in the social media world you count as old what we can

media world you count as old what we can

media world you count as old what we can tell a machine is because we don’t need

tell a machine is because we don’t need

tell a machine is because we don’t need to say you know look at specific words

to say you know look at specific words

to say you know look at specific words we can also say you know look at

we can also say you know look at

we can also say you know look at sequences of characters yeah so they can

sequences of characters yeah so they can

sequences of characters yeah so they can also spot some hidden patterns that we

also spot some hidden patterns that we

also spot some hidden patterns that we might not be able to see so

might not be able to see so

might not be able to see so straightforwardly now there was so if we

straightforwardly now there was so if we

straightforwardly now there was so if we if we teach this to machines are we

if we teach this to machines are we

if we teach this to machines are we teaching machines to recognize basically

teaching machines to recognize basically

teaching machines to recognize basically stereotypes as much as we seem to use

stereotypes as much as we seem to use

stereotypes as much as we seem to use now there was a study that was published

now there was a study that was published

now there was a study that was published last year at a major conference in

last year at a major conference in

last year at a major conference in computational linguistics and the people

computational linguistics and the people

computational linguistics and the people who did this study aimed at checking

who did this study aimed at checking

who did this study aimed at checking exactly this so they took a system and

exactly this so they took a system and

exactly this so they took a system and they took people and they made them

they took people and they made them

they took people and they made them assign gender to the same data now what

assign gender to the same data now what

assign gender to the same data now what they found they found actually three

they found they found actually three

they found they found actually three very interesting things so number one I

very interesting things so number one I

very interesting things so number one I have a quote from the paper which is

have a quote from the paper which is

have a quote from the paper which is this so humans they found out the humans

this so humans they found out the humans

this so humans they found out the humans relied on correct stereotypes but relied

relied on correct stereotypes but relied

relied on correct stereotypes but relied on them more heavily than warranted from

on them more heavily than warranted from

on them more heavily than warranted from the data what does it mean that they

the data what does it mean that they

the data what does it mean that they over generalized on the beer and the tea

over generalized on the beer and the tea

over generalized on the beer and the tea and the volleyball and all the tech and

and the volleyball and all the tech and

and the volleyball and all the tech and so on yeah so what happens here is that

so on yeah so what happens here is that

so on yeah so what happens here is that we are loaded with stereotypes and we

we are loaded with stereotypes and we

we are loaded with stereotypes and we actually use them in our evaluation of

actually use them in our evaluation of

actually use them in our evaluation of data so if I want to say if we ask

data so if I want to say if we ask

data so if I want to say if we ask around apparently this was like used too

around apparently this was like used too

around apparently this was like used too much the stereotypical information now

much the stereotypical information now

much the stereotypical information now so they make assumptions of that kind

so they make assumptions of that kind

so they make assumptions of that kind now the other thing though that they

now the other thing though that they

now the other thing though that they found out the second thing which is very

found out the second thing which is very

found out the second thing which is very interesting is that nevertheless humans

interesting is that nevertheless humans

interesting is that nevertheless humans can tell gender pretty well in about 75

can tell gender pretty well in about 75

can tell gender pretty well in about 75 80 percent of the cases

80 percent of the cases

80 percent of the cases how about machines approximately the

how about machines approximately the

how about machines approximately the same no machines can tell gender in

same no machines can tell gender in

same no machines can tell gender in approximate approximately 75 to 80

approximate approximately 75 to 80

approximate approximately 75 to 80 percent of the cases depending on

percent of the cases depending on

percent of the cases depending on language depending on the text and so on

language depending on the text and so on

language depending on the text and so on but the third thing that they found and

but the third thing that they found and

but the third thing that they found and it’s the most interesting one is that if

it’s the most interesting one is that if

it’s the most interesting one is that if you take a combined approach of humans

you take a combined approach of humans

you take a combined approach of humans and machines you get the highest

and machines you get the highest

and machines you get the highest accuracy what does this mean it means

accuracy what does this mean it means

accuracy what does this mean it means that machines and humans do not see the

that machines and humans do not see the

that machines and humans do not see the same things yeah you can think about it

same things yeah you can think about it

same things yeah you can think about it a bit like that yeah there’s a correct

a bit like that yeah there’s a correct

a bit like that yeah there’s a correct bunch that both machines and humans will

bunch that both machines and humans will

bunch that both machines and humans will see but at the sides that are correct

see but at the sides that are correct

see but at the sides that are correct cases that the humans will be able to

cases that the humans will be able to

cases that the humans will be able to judge and others that the machines will

judge and others that the machines will

judge and others that the machines will be able to judge well isn’t this

be able to judge well isn’t this

be able to judge well isn’t this interesting

interesting

interesting yeah you might not completely expect

yeah you might not completely expect

yeah you might not completely expect this now why does this happen this is

this now why does this happen this is

this now why does this happen this is because we do teach machines to look at

because we do teach machines to look at

because we do teach machines to look at words but we don’t say which words

words but we don’t say which words

words but we don’t say which words yeah they generalize over something that

yeah they generalize over something that

yeah they generalize over something that we might not see like for example do you

we might not see like for example do you

we might not see like for example do you know did you know that women apparently

know did you know that women apparently

know did you know that women apparently tend to use more pronouns than men now

tend to use more pronouns than men now

tend to use more pronouns than men now if you don’t know this because you’re

if you don’t know this because you’re

if you don’t know this because you’re not involved in this kind of in this

not involved in this kind of in this

not involved in this kind of in this field why would you start to look at the

field why would you start to look at the

field why would you start to look at the text you know what is more pronouns

text you know what is more pronouns

text you know what is more pronouns maybe it’s wrong but the machine will
