I think the AI angle of this is obscurant. It doesn’t matter that grok is “an AI” whatever you take that to mean. Suppose X hired a team of guys to photoshop the clothes off of women and children whenever anyone asks. That’s functionally identical what happening here. It’s not complicated.
A functional country would shut Grok down permanently. Like, immediately. Right now. Last week. Whatever. Just flip the switch. Obviously.

לסיכום פריז:
1. זו אכן כנראה העיר הטובה בעולם (לפחות למי שדוברים צרפתית, בלי מוגבלות בהליכה ובלי תינוקות/פעוטות).
2. אחרי שבוע בעיר (ועוד בעיקר באזורים התיירותים שלה) ממש ברור כמה @maayanef.bsky.social צדקה כשהיא אמרה לי שהולנד (ואמסטרדם) מאוד לבנה. כל הגזענים שבהולנד באמת בכיינים בנוסף להכל.

Some examples of when phonetics shows up in your daily life:
- When you ask Siri or Alexa a question
- When you mishear lyrics
- When you read the subtitles because you didn't quite catch what the character said

It is unclear to me how much traction Glossa: a journal of general linguistics is getting on BlueSky. I am thinking of switching communication about new papers to LinkedIn, which gives better insight into the # of views garnered. Give us a like if you want Glossa to stay on the Blue side of things.

I wish more people posted about linguistics on bsky. Even if I try to follow all linguists, people end up talking about politics all the time. When #bsky is just another ragebait or anxietybait machine, people avoid it.
I care about politics of course, but I try to have boundaries too.

You can /argue/ that Coca-Cola invented the modern Santa Claus.
But we can pinpoint the origin of Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer with total precision.
He was invented by Robert L. May in 1939 for Montgomery Ward as a promotional/coloring book.
Ironically, Robert May grew up secular Jewish.

מחכה למאמר בארχיב על הבינ״מ/ מערכת הסוכנים שמימשה את זה מכתבי היד והתרשימים
היום למדתי שבספרייה הלאומית בירושלים קיים אחד האוספים הגדולים בעולם של מחברות וכתבי יד מקוריים של סר אייזק ניוטון, עם דגש על מחקריו בתחומי המיסטיקה והאלכימיה. בין היתר ישנה מחברת בה העתיק תרשים אלכימאי של ניקולא פלאמל מלא סמלים המרמזים על המפתח להפקת אבן החכמים; גם התרשים המקורי של פלאמל מוחזק שם.

Crucially, the author is clear: this isn’t about diagnosing people from their texts.
Language patterns don’t work in isolation & context always matters. What’s meaningful is the pattern over time.
