Charlie Welch

DEPTH Junior Research Group Leader

Charlie’s research focuses on the frontiers of customizable language generation and models of perception. He is interested in how attributes of text, such as toxicity and empathy, interact and can be used for mutual improvement, and how these techniques can further be used to study populations. By better modeling both people and properties of language, he aims to both make language technology more useful and to better understand how diverse groups of people view the world. With a heightened understanding of who we are solving problems for, we can more sustainably train models, reducing environmental costs and supporting a more inclusive research community.
