Beschreibung
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.
