+title: Welcoming Fellow Katy Gero
+author: clare-stanton
+---
+The LIL team is excited to welcome Katy Gero to the team to investigate ethical language models for creative writing. Katy joins us as a post-doc from the [Variation Lab at Harvard SEAS](https://glassmanlab.seas.harvard.edu), which is led by friend of LIL Elena Glassman. 
+
+As part of her work, Katy will be investigating under what circumstances, if any, literary writers would want their own work included as training data in a language model. Through interviews within literary communities and their adjacent fields, she intends to understand what kind of data collection processes and notions of consent are appropriate in these communities.
+
+Secondarily, Katy hopes to collect and release an open-source dataset in the appropriate manner based off of connections made during interviews. Time permitting, we would then train a Transformer model and begin investigations into the utility of such a model compared to other available models. 
+
+All findings and potential dataset outputs will be publicly available upon their completion. 
+
+Katy’s work is part of our ongoing investigations into the corners of the emerging AI landscape. Her particular interest in the creative writing world is of course a key point of overlap with the interests of the library world, but themes like copyright, consent, and communal knowledge also echo our values as a lab.
