Description
This overview provides non-technicians in Humanities (and Law) with an inspiring set of starting points for individual exploration of recent revolutions in Natural Language Processing (NLP), whereby advanced language models routinely facilitate automated textual analysis and generation of essays, news articles, and narrative stories. In so doing, these models encode the implicit rules and biases of their designers and training datasets. The effects of this encoding have ethical implications when these models are deployed on large scales as proxies for human decision-making as well as personal implications for readers and readership in general.
