I really like learning about both human and computer languages, and as I said to my mum just now, I kind of want to just "get paid to learn"<br />Ideally I could just travel to different countries learning languages and studying and stuff, but this might be a more practical direction to head in considering finances. It would probably be helpful for the computer scientists working on these projects to have some experience and interest in language learning!<br />I knew computers and human language certainly come together, but I never knew computational linguistics was something you could get a degree in!
