| I went running along the lake, soaking up and reflecting the rays of sun and the smiles of old men walking dogs. Bergen is so beautiful in sunshine. The webcams give a suggestion but can’t possibly show you the full glory of being in a city cupped by mountains and caressed by fjords. |

My colleague Jessica Witte has just shared a preprint where she compared the emotional arcs of the stories we generated using gpt-4o-mini to those of human-authored (pre-2022) stories from the subreddit r/WritingPrompts, conveniently gathered in this dataset. She found a distinct difference in the endings of the LLM-generated stories: both […]
Dorothy Bishop, a psychologist, wrote a useful list of what reviewers need to look out now that so many papers are bad science that looks good thanks to LLMs. Read her whole blog post, she explains it well, but here’s a brief version because I’m pretty sure we’ll be needing […]
I recently read a good article on the different kinds of truth a language model operates with by Luke Mann, Liam Magee and Vanicka Arora, Truth Machines: Synthesizing Veracity in AI Language Models, but despite its lovely typology of truths (consensus, correspondence, coherence and pragmatic) it doesn’t help me with […]
I have this hunch that sparkles and glow and shimmer are somehow a point in the latent spaces of LLMs that have more connections than you would expect. Perhaps their connotation to magic and to the unknown matches some of the mystique of genAI? Or perhaps these words are used […]
This LLM-generated paper demonstrates how LLMs fail to cite core scholarship on a topic but generate misaligned citations systematically.
This paper is a great example of why you probably shouldn’t use a systematic literature review for a theoretical and conceptual research question like “How does artificial intelligence affect the perception of authenticity and aura in art?” However, if you’re looking for an annotated list of 48 recent articles about […]

Hej Jill,
Jag ar en svensk doktorand vid University of Texas at Austin, Department of Communication Studies. Jag har forskat en del om blogs och hamnade rakt pa din forskning. Jag antar att du vet om att Harvard skall halla en konference om blogging i November, 2004.
Hur som helst, ville bara halsa pa!
Skicka garna ett e-mail om du vill.
Halsningar,

Bergen is a lovely city. I visited in July and wish I could have stayed longer.

Too bad it rains most of the time. I lived there for a semester once, and after a couple of moths of rain, the summer sort of never really came.

I remember walking through Bergen at night, feeling like I was at the bottom of a giant bowl as the lights rose up the mountain sides all around.
