| Challenge: | a growing number of natural language processing models leave aside the language itself . a recent paradigm in the computational linguistics community is training models on specific perspectives of a segment of the population or an individual. |
| Approach: | They propose to use BERT-based classification models to detect stereotypes related to immigrants . they compare models with predictions from GPT-4 and annotated tweets from Spanish Twitter . |
| Outcome: | The proposed models are compared with predictions from the dataset of Spanish Twitter posts containing stereotypes . the models are confident in their predictions and more accurate for implicit stereotypes, the authors show . |

| Challenge: | Recent studies have identified a gap in the availability of tools and resources to study bias in languages other than English and social contexts outside the north of America. |
| Approach: | They use stereotypes to build a corpus of sentence pairs that cover biases in seven cultural contexts. |
| Outcome: | The proposed resource covers a wide range of languages and cultural settings . it favors sentences that express stereotypes in most bias categories . |
