This week we had the chance to talk with Dr. Dennis Tenen, an associate professor of English and Comparative Lit at Columbia University. Dennis has been studying vaccine-hesitant language online, a project that is leveraging AI to better understand the various social and cultural explanations for vaccine-hesitancy.

We chatted with Dennis about his unique background in the intersection of AI and literature, and about the machine learning that is helping bring his research to life.
