The workshop aims to strengthen the emerging connection between NLP and survey researchers. Survey researchers and data collectors are increasingly recognizing the need to integrate Large Language Models (LLMs) into their workflows. At the same time, NLP researchers see the importance of grounding their models with better data for accurate public representation as technology is becoming increasingly human-facing. This event seeks to foster joint work between the survey research and NLP communities, identify gaps and needs, and initiate a closer relationship between these interconnected fields.
