This chapter is a case study in collecting and managing linguistic data from Twitter as part of the Indigenous Tweets project, which was founded in 2011 as a way of promoting the use of Indigenous and minority languages in social media. Our principal aim in this chapter is to describe our data management procedures in sufficient detail that linguists, sociolinguists, lexicographers, or community language activists with some programming skills can begin experimenting with Twitter data themselves.

Abstract: We all recognize the amazing success of language models in developing advanced AI/NLP technologies like ChatGPT for English. But very few other languages have access to the billions of words of text needed to train high-quality LLMs; this is what I call “the new digital divide”. I’d like to talk in broad terms about the prospects in terms of AI and NLP for the other 7000 or so languages spoken in the world today.
