A bit late, but I’m currently in Erlangen, Germany, enjoying the first day of a @rc21project.bsky.social symposium. It was a great honor to open the event with a talk on AI integration with concordance methods, focusing on new #AntConc functions.
Very much enjoyed attending the Brisbane AWS User Group this evening. Great talk by Mark Promnitz and a great atmosphere in the AWS offices. Nice getting to know Bill McKeague, too.
Back in Japan after a fantastic half year sabbatical at the University of Queensland. Good news is that I'll be continuing my connection with UQ as a visiting scholar until 2028, serving as a consultant and developer for the Language Data Commons of Australia (LDaCA) project.

Last day of my sabbatical at the University of Queensland. I’ve had such a great time in Brisbane. It’s a really lovely city. Huge thanks to Martin Schweinberger and @drcrosthwaite.bsky.social for being such great hosts, and to everyone else I’ve met during my time here for being so welcoming.
Today is the last day to register for the event below. I'm honored to be giving the opening talk:
AI-Assisted Concordancing: From Search Support to Pattern Profiling.
Today was my first day back at Waseda University, where I had the pleasure of hosting Nathan Wang, the CTO of the educational AI company Edexia (YC W25). Very much enjoyed discussing the role of AI in education and hearing about the company's plans.
Can't believe one week has already passed since the end of the @cl2025.co.uk conference. This year, I had the great honor of serving as one of the plenary speakers, giving my talk on AI and corpus linguistics in a really lovely venue. Big thanks to @robbielove.org and all the organisers. #CL2025
For anyone interested in my recent seminar on running DeepSeek-R1 and other open-source/open weight AI models locally, I have now created a public GitHub repo that includes all the slides, demo files, and a complete tutorial. I hope you find it useful!

Happy to announce our paper on vocab testing using AI was just accepted by the CALL journal. My first collaboration with @Jeffrey51122028, @AaronOlafBatty, Keita Nakamura, Christopher Nicklin, @StuartM13041063, and Kanako Tomaru. The preprint is here: www.researchgate.net/publication/...
Arriving early for the start of the Microsoft AI Tour here in Tokyo. A great way to finish my sabbatical year, where I focused my research, talks, and app development on this revolutionary technology.
