Scope
Once a large pre-trained language model is published, it is a snapshot of language when its corpus was collected. What are ways to update models to support new or newly-frequent terms (BIPOC), phrasing (social distancing), or people and events (Fyre Festival)? What are reliable, low-cost ways to test and benchmark these methods of updating?
