I also developed a demo showcasing gender-neutral translation with LLMs, which I had the chance to present at FBK’s Digital Industry Center Demo Day. Unfortunately the demo is not open to the public for now, but here is a photo of @bsavoldi.bsky.social and me presenting it ✌️

Another interesting fact about Bluesky's Italian localization: the website greets new users in an inclusive way by using * instead of gendered morphemes 👀

...however, it also refers to the user with a masculine term ('iscritto') right after 🤦🏻‍♂️

Thx @sarapapi.bsky.social for the screenshot!

Turns out this is how programmers do introspection

We may need more machine translation people on Bluesky 🤔

it: 'impara' = en: 'learn', imperative – the correct translation would be 'insegna' (en: 'teach')
