I have this idea that somebody wrote something about the interface of hypertext fiction as a kind of narrator. You know, like the little navigation bar in afternoon, a story, or, I suppose, though this wouldn’t have been in the article, the sidebars of a blog. Actually I thought it was Raine Koskimaa, in his PhD thesis, but I can’t find it there. Do you know what I’m thinking of?

That’s almost the title of a paper I read today, Do Multilingual LLMs Think In English?, which uses several methods to poke into what a language model actually does when responding to a prompt in a language other than English. Spoiler: it looks as though it goes via English even […]

Annette Markham and I gave the opening keynote for NORDMEDIA 2025 together and had a lot of fun! I’ll try to write more about our talk later, but I wanted to share this list of ideas from the audience right away. The tagline of the conference is “Imagining Livable Futures”, […]
This morning I received the copy-edited version of a paper I recently submitted to a journal. This is always cause for celebration, another step towards publication accomplished! But this time the copy-editor wasn’t human, it was an AI. We have undertaken a light text edit using the tool Paperpal Preflight; […]

I’ve been interested in this quite a lot (the never finsihed thesis ideas:-( ) – think we’ve talked about this in a few emails, and here is a paper, but I don’t know if this is what you’re looking for.
