# Measuring bias in language models is hard! | |
How to measure bias in language models is not trivial and still an active area of research. | |
First of all, what is bias? As you may have noticed, stereotypes may change across languages and cultures. | |
What is problematic in the USA, may not be relevant in the Netherlands---each cultural context requires its own careful evaluation. | |
Furthermore, defining good ways to measure it is also difficult. | |
For example, [Blodgett et al. (2021)](https://aclanthology.org/2021.acl-long.81/) find that typos, nonsensical examples, and other mistakes threaten the validity of CrowS-Pairs, the dataset we show above. | |
