ChatGPT-generated texts show authorship traits that identify them as non-human
Large Language Models can emulate different writing styles, ranging from composing poetry that appears indistinguishable from that of famous poets to using slang that can convince people that they are chatting with a human online. While differences in style may not always be visible to the untrained eye, we can generally distinguish the writing of different people, like a linguistic fingerprint. This work examines whether a language model can also be linked to a specific fingerprint. Through st…

i wonder if brainrot humor worked the same way back before the internet existed. like did victorian era youth make themselves laugh by inserting vulgar slang or opium and alcohol or women dressing like men or charles darwin or edgy jack the ripper references into phrases coined within a children's author / humorist's "nonsense book" or whatever trashy pulp magazines were popular

SABIA: An AI-Powered Tool for Detecting Opioid-Related Behaviors on Social Media
Social media platforms have become valuable tools for understanding public health challenges by offering insights into patient behaviors, medication use, and mental health issues. However, analyzing such data remains difficult due to the prevalence of informal language, slang, and coded communication, which can obscure the detection of opioid misuse. This study addresses the issue of opioid-related user behavior on social media, including informal expressions, slang terms, and misspelled or cod…

"Cockwomble" is an interesting example of creativity and humour in British slang, combining elements of indecency and whimsy to produce a memorable and effective insult.

Not Like Us, Hunty: Measuring Perceptions and Behavioral Effects of Minoritized Anthropomorphic Cues in LLMs
As large language models (LLMs) increasingly adapt and personalize to diverse sets of users, there is an increased risk of systems appropriating sociolects, i.e., language styles or dialects that are associated with specific minoritized lived experiences (e.g., African American English, Queer slang). In this work, we examine whether sociolect usage by an LLM agent affects user reliance on its outputs and user perception (satisfaction, frustration, trust, and social presence). We designed and co…

Toxicity-Aware Few-Shot Prompting for Low-Resource Singlish Translation
As online communication increasingly incorporates under-represented languages and colloquial dialects, standard translation systems often fail to preserve local slang, code-mixing, and culturally embedded markers of harmful speech. Translating toxic content between low-resource language pairs poses additional challenges due to scarce parallel data and safety filters that sanitize offensive expressions. In this work, we propose a reproducible, two-stage framework for toxicity-preserving translat…
