UT Austin NLP and
Computational Linguistics
Our work in Natural Language Processing, Computational Linguistics, and AI for Language at UT Austin spans many departments and schools. We build systems that produce and understand natural language, try to understand how those systems work, study what they can tell us about human language and cognition, and think about NLP and AI's potential benefits, harms, and impacts.
Check out what we're up to in the UT Austin Natural Language Learning Reading Group.
