Really nice talk today by @carmen-lee.bsky.social at #ADDA5. Fascinating description of how memetic aggression is reinforced on online fora vía a combination of affordances, specific subcultures & strategies of normalization. Interesting how similar things happen in different geographic contexts!

We've all seen (work on) restaurant reviews, but Melike Akay's research focuses on reviews of quite a different service: hospitals 🏥 I do certainly check the reviews before going to a new doctor's office but then often you don't have a choice in the German system... #ADDA5
Eva Triebl continues with a study on venting on Reddit where she takes a closer look at moments of metapragmatic crisis - instances where we find discursive struggle over who can participate in online interactions, how and under what conditions #ADDA5
Morana Lukač & Stacey Copeland kick off the panel on mental health discourses online with an analysis of podcasts on narcissistic abuse and how therapeutic intimacy functions as a product #ADDA5
Schneider identified "helper tropes" in interviews with & publications by LLM designers: helping people as the goal, "no language left behind" . A similar framing to what was also used in contexts of colonization (full circle with the idea that language functions as a companion for empire). #ADDA5
Schneider: Standardized writing is an important precondition for LLMs, which are often trained with data written for a specific algorithm in the first place: i.e. online texts produced with search engine optimization in mind #ADDA5
