@begusgasper @unnatural__log I just ran some tests. I think we should expect more bars in X-bar theory; adjuncts do not seem to exist for GPT. I wonder if explicitly mentioning that they are daughters and sisters of bars makes it perform better.
Our lab's work tested on gpt-2!
@begusgasper I asked gpt2 to reconsider how it analyzes the English infinitive. It finally realized that "finish the homework" is not a NP. I'm still not happy with how it treats the infinitive, but it's better. As for the Spanish, llama-3's tree reads so much better to me.
Testing #gpt2 today with the Begušian syntax tree generation test from @begusgasper GPT2: ✅ Tries to sketch the deep syntactic structure facing a hyperbaton ✅ Identifies famous syntax puzzles ❌ Loses itself without an expressed subject in NOM/ERG ⁉️ Makes mysterious mistakes
I thrilled to give a talk at the Santa Fe Institute @sfiscience and @Interspecies_io next week. Check out the amazing program

I think it's really sad that @ucdavis and @UCBerkeley don't have a PhD defense. A PhD defense should be a celebration of a scientists growth trajectory and their novel contributions to science.
I love the word “antiquity.” Love what it means, love the way it sounds. Just a banger of a term.

@begusgasper @unnatural__log I just ran some tests. I think we should expect more bars in X-bar theory; adjuncts do not seem to exist for GPT. I wonder if explicitly mentioning that they are daughters and sisters of bars makes it perform better.
My last attempt is the notorious Mandarin construction 王冕死了父亲, where 王冕 introduces the topic with presumably no theta role. A handful of LLMs I tested took the unaccusative "died" transitively, but thankfully GPT2 did not. Maybe it's just too famous... (5/5)
Seeing poor handling of pro-drop, I decided to poke GPT2 more with funny subjects. I tried Tibetan which has dative subjects under certain circumstances. The result was bad, presumably GPT2 being insufficiently trained, but I don't know another language with dative subjects (4/5)
I wish I knew another language other than Latin that has free word order, but multis inimicos sagittis interfeci easily confused GPT2. It also forcibly took inimicos as the subject NP despite knowing that "interfeci" implies the subject "ego" (3/5)
Do you work in legal or political philosophy? Did you get your PhD in the past 5 years? Are you looking for a research fellowship in London? You should apply for this! kcl.ac.uk/jobs/088690-ye… It's *also* open to folks with permenant jobs looking for a year of research leave.
@unnatural__log @begusgasper Do they only do plain structure or can they handle X’ too? I feel like GPT-4 is useless doing X’ with latex

Testing #gpt2 today with the Begušian syntax tree generation test from @begusgasper GPT2: ✅ Tries to sketch the deep syntactic structure facing a hyperbaton ✅ Identifies famous syntax puzzles ❌ Loses itself without an expressed subject in NOM/ERG ⁉️ Makes mysterious mistakes
@begusgasper I asked gpt2 to reconsider how it analyzes the English infinitive. It finally realized that "finish the homework" is not a NP. I'm still not happy with how it treats the infinitive, but it's better. As for the Spanish, llama-3's tree reads so much better to me.
The Spanish tree lost the word "tiempo" and does not carry a subject DP and with little pro. However, I have yet to see a LLM sucessfully tackling pro-drop, so whatever (2/5)
