#426 โ€“ Edward Gibson: Human Language, Psycholinguistics, Syntax, Grammar & LLMs

So production's a little harder, right? You have to figure out how do you run a task in the network such that you're doing some kind of production. And I can't remember what, they've done a bunch of different kinds of tasks there where you get people to produce things, yeah, figure out how to produce. And the same network goes on there, exactly the same place.

Not as much. There are words in there. There's function words and stuff. So it's lower activation. Fascinating. Yeah, yeah. So there's like, basically the more language-like it is, the higher it goes in the language network. And that network is there from when you speak, from as soon as you learn language.

And it's there, like you speak multiple languages, the same network is going for your multiple languages. So you speak English, you speak Russian, both of them are hitting that same network, if you're fluent in those languages.

Not at all. Isn't that amazing? Even if you're a really good programmer, that is not a human language. It's just not conveying the same information. And so it is not in the language network.

It is amazing. That's really weird. So that's like one set of data. This is hers, like shows that what you might think is thinking is not language. Language is just this conventionalized system that we've worked out in human languages. Oh, another fascinating little tidbit is that even if they're these constructed languages like Klingon or... I don't know the languages from Game of Thrones.

I'm sorry. I don't remember those languages. There's a lot of people offended right now. There's people that speak those languages. They really speak those languages because the people that wrote... the languages for the shows, they did an amazing job of constructing something like a human language. And that lights up the language area.
