About The Session

The purpose of the special session "Generative Artificial Intelligence for Text" is to provide a lively platform for the examination and debate of current developments, difficulties, and uses in the developing field of generative AI that are particularly relevant to text-based data. This session encourages scholars, practitioners, and industry experts to share ideas and contribute to the developing field of AI-driven text generation, with an emphasis on promoting collaboration and knowledge exchange. Natural language processing (NLP), the newest text generation models such as GPT and BERT, sentiment analysis, opinion mining, language translation, and the crucial elements of explainability and ethical issues in AI text creation are just a few of the many topics of interest.

Beyond theoretical considerations, the special session will include real-world applications of generative text models. The goal of the session is to present practical applications and illustrate the observable effects of AI-driven text generation in a variety of fields, from content creation to the building of sophisticated chatbots. The organizers are dedicated to establishing an inclusive environment that fosters multidisciplinary communication and cooperation as the area develops quickly. It is intended for this special session to serve as a hub for cutting-edge techniques, applications, and approaches, all aimed at collaboratively influencing the direction of AI-driven text generation.

Related Topics but not limited to:
1. Text Generation Models for Natural Language Processing (NLP) (e.g., GPT, BERT)
2. Language Translation and Multilingual Models
3. Sentiment Analysis and Opinion Mining
4. Text Generation: Explainability and Interpretability

Objectives and Scope

This special session aims to examine the revolutionary developments and ramifications of large language models (LLMs) in several research and innovation domains. Recent advances in LLMs, like GPT-3.5, have completely changed how we create, interpret, and comprehend natural language, opening up intriguing new possibilities for research, business, and society in general. This session will examine LLMs' current uses, difficulties, and possible future directions, demonstrating how they might support and improve the sessions featuring reviewed material from the leading conference.

Due to their capacity to produce writing that resembles that of a person, comprehend complicated linguistic patterns, and carry out a variety of tasks related to natural language processing, big language models have attracted much interest in recent years. Massive training data sets and cutting-edge deep learning architectures have allowed LLMs to outperform earlier benchmarks in tasks including sentiment analysis, question-answering, machine translation, and question-answering. Additionally, they have the potential to advance cutting-edge study and innovation in a variety of fields.
