| Challenge: | Pre-trained language models have advanced natural language processing (NLP) despite the introduction of BERT, single-language models are still relevant. |
| Approach: | They present a German singlelanguage RoBERT model pre-trained exclusively on the German portion of the OSCAR dataset. |
| Outcome: | The GottBERT model outperforms the existing models on Named Entity Recognition and text classification tasks. |

| Challenge: | Current approaches for examining stereotypes in PLMs require intricate human knowledge about these stereotypes and entail careful manual curation of examples. |
| Approach: | They propose a framework for examining stereotype-encoding behavior of PLMs using model probing and textual analyses. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach can debiase PLMs without compromising their language modeling capabilities or performance. |
