They discuss the resonance between annotation and free association; the experience of narrating oneself in analysis, losing the thread, doubling back, and having one’s speech be received by the other; the index as a branching form, a poem of the subjective reader; writing as social practice through collective annotation; and how sometimes a text pours salt in the wound while sometimes it serves as a balm.Miranda Mellis is the author of the novel Crocosmia (Nightboat Books); three novellas, The Revi...

AI Papers Podcast DailyChatGPT's Bullshit: A Wittgensteinian AnalysisThis research paper investigates whether large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT generate "bullshit," using Harry Frankfurt's definition. The authors develop a "Wittgensteinian Language Game Detector" (WLGD) to statistically analyze LLM output and compare it to human-generated text from politics and "bullshit jobs" (as defined by David Graeber). Two experiments using the WLGD demonstrate a correlation between LLM-generated text, political language, and text produced in bullshit jobs, suggesting the WLGD can reliably identify "bullshit." The study also explores why LLMs produce bullshit, attributing it partly to the design of chatbots and their interaction with users, highlighting the "Eliza effect" and...

Hanser RauschenWofür kämpfen Übersetzer:innen? Zu Gast: Lisa MensingHanser Rauschen | #20

Zu Gast ist Lisa Mensing, die aufschlüsselt, wofür Übersetzer:innen außerdem kämpfen. Denn zur mangelnden Sichtbarkeit gesellt sich die Tatsache, dass vom Übersetzen kaum jemand hauptberuflich leben kann – und wenn, dann meist nur in prekären Umständen. Es geht um Förderungen und Preise, um Seitenhonorare, um Gutachten, KI, Lektoratsarbeit und Fahnenkorrekturen und letztlich um die basale Erkenntnis, die man n...

How does the paratext of James Bond Idris Elba fancasting play into the actual film? How does the film shift our understanding of the show, and the ‘Luther Land’ setting? How does making a standalone-ish film after five serialised TV seasons work? We delve into these questions, along with ‘red rooms’, moral conundrums, character continuity, filmic setpieces, questions of recasting, Idris Elba’s 2015 Luther short film/music video, and several interviews with Idris Elba, writer Neil Cross, director Jamie Payne, & more!

The Happy RevolutionHearing from God in a Technological World with Cambell PrinceMatthew talks with Cambell Prince, a 'technology missionary' leading a software team in Thailand. Cambell quit an enjoyable and fulfilling career in electronic engineering in New Zealand and found himself working with minority language communities creating written forms of their languages. Cambell and Matthew discuss Christian missions, minority language translation, navigating cultural differences, humane and community-centred software development, artificial intelligence, leadership, and perhaps most interestingly, how to hear from God.

Critical Distance: Keywords in PlayKeywords in Play Episode 19 - Regina Seiwald and Ed Vollans - ParatextsIn this episode we speak with Regina Seiwald and Ed Vollans on paratexts and their forthcoming collaboration "Not in the Game: History, Paratext and Games", soon to be published with De Gruyter.
Regina Seiwald is highly interested in the relationship between literary theory and narratology across the languages. Her focus thereby lies with the Anglo-American and Germanic tradition. In my PhD thesis, she researched metafiction in the postmodern British novel to determine how texts communicate the relationship between fiction and reality. The insights generated have subsequently been applied to video games and digitalisation more generally (also XR...

Close examination of early printed Yiddish books reveals how the same text could assume radically different material forms depending on whether it was marketed to a Jewish or non-Jewish audience. Setting two editions of an early Yiddish biblical epic side-by-side, Dr. Wamsley notes differences in typography and page-layout, editing and paratext, demonstrating how textual migration, from one cultural context to another, in turn engendered a transformation...
