语言理解受叙事影响,意义关系会随经历改变。
Language Has Two Parameters: Narrative-Induced Semantic Plasticity and Phase-Sensitive Interpretation
- 将阅读体验中的意义变化定义为‘相位’状态
- 发现叙事顺序和引用方式会影响意义解读
- 提醒未来AI需具备个人化语义记忆,防语义污染
阅读小说或遭遇叙事不仅传递信息,更会改变读者。本文提出,这种体验会重塑同时激活的意义间持久关系,形成个体与共享的历史,而当前通用语言模型未必保留这些关系。模型可复述事件后果,但若历史未内化,则并非真正被改变。本文将缺失的这种关系状态形式化为“相位”,提出关于叙事顺序、引语使用及被压抑意义的可检验预测,并主张未来人工智能体必须具备基于特定个体与关系的持续语义状态。潜在风险是语义投毒:攻击者可篡改已有意义间的关系。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Reading fiction or encountering narrative generally does not merely add information. The encounter changes the reader. This paper proposes that encounters alter persistent relations among simultaneously active meanings, producing individual and shared histories that population-trained language models do not necessarily retain. A model may be told of an encounter and reproduce its consequences while the history remains in context; this is not the same as being changed by the encounter. This paper formalizes this missing relational state as phase, sets out testable predictions about encounter order, quotation, and suppressed meanings, and argues that future AI agents will need persistent semantic states indexed to particular individuals and relationships. The matching risk is semantic poisoning: an attack that re-signs relations among meanings already present.
