Abstract: The quality of language technology (LT) for Polish has greatly improved recently, influenced by three independent trends. The first one is Poland-specific and concerns the increase in national funding of both scientific and R&D projects, resulting in the construction of The National Corpus of Polish and the development of the CLARIN-PL and DARIAH-PL infrastructures. Two other trends are global: the development of language resources (LRs) and tools by private companies and of course, the deep learning revolution which has led to enormous improvements in the state-of-the-art in all fields of language processing.
