Jan Philip Wahle

Research Scientist at the University of Göttingen

Language is not only an indispensable tool for the dissemination of information, it open ups the dimensions of outer worlds (communication with others) and inner worlds (relection and thought). As a researcher at the University of Göttingen in Germany, I am dedicated to build AI systems that learn the intricacies of human language to benefit humanity in a responsible way. Follow me to stay up-to-date with my latest works in AI and NLP research.
