important on LLMs for academics: 1️⃣ LLMs are usefully seen as lossy content-addressable systems 2️⃣ we can't automatically detect plagiarism 3️⃣ LLMs automate plagiarism & paper mills 4️⃣ we must protect literature from pollution 5️⃣ LLM use is a CoI 6️⃣ prompts do not cause output in authorial sense

Hi all, I wonder if anyone could share the PDF of the below doc? Many thanks!! Chomsky, N. (1974) The Amherst Lectures, Documents Linguistiques, Universite deParis VII.

Honestly, Marcolli et al. (2025) is pretty hard to read, even though I have some background knowledge in computer science, but I think it's a nice criterion to examine if I shall apply for a PhD at all.

wonderful work, worth reading

Interesting talk
