The Revolution of LLMs

In this thrilling, innovative work, Dr Dimitris Vartziotis provides a new angle on the ideas he expressed in "Wittgenstein and the End of Language Games" - ideas that prefigured the revolution of Artificial Intelligence happening in the present. Here, Vartziotis' ideas about the nature of language are elaborated on in the form of a fictional symposium, attended by two other thinkers that have revolutionized our understanding of language - Ludwig Wittgenstein and Noam Chomsky - and by two Large Language Models (LLMs), ChatGPT and Claude. In this modern interpretation of a Platonic dialogue, the contrasting views shine light on a daring yet convincing hypothesis: What if the existence of Large Language Models is further proof of the fundamentally mathematico-topological nature of language?
