Adobe now tells me every time I open a pdf of a paper, "This appears to be a long document. Save time by reading a summary using AI Assistant." As if people needed encouragement to read less.

Peter Uhrig on multimodal constructions may just be the definition of how cool #linguistics is. Just in case anyone was looking for a reminderπ
Does your new AI study have a register angle? Consider submitting to a new special issue of Register Studies!
