A critical exegesis of large language models, like ChatGPT, and recent advances in artificial intelligence.
If speech has long been an emblem of the human species, then talking machines seem to be harbingers of some kind of technological singularity. Indeed, if the brilliance--or at least eloquence--of large language models is any indication, we seem to be poised at the threshold of general AI, a form of artificial intelligence that will not only surpass human intelligence but maybe even replace humans altogether. This slim text lays out a critical genealogy of the highly contested relation between human values, machinic parameters, and corporate powers. It also provides a theory of the reasons for, and effects of, our current social and technological horizon.Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.

Paperback. Etat : New. What kind of meaning can machines make-and why does it matter that it's not the same as ours?Anthropologist Paul Kockelman's Last Words offers a rigorous but accessible account of how large language models actually work-and why the meaning they produce is fundamentally different from human meaning-making. Drawing on the semiotics of C.S. Peirce, Kockelman's witty and insightful pamphlet shows how LLMs are trained to predict word-word relations, not word-world relations, which explains both their uncanny fluency and their systematic blind spots. The result is a compact, essential guide to cutting through the hype: not a dismissal of AI, but a precise account of what it can and cannot do-and who profits from the confusion.
