Emergence of psychopathological computations in large language models [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Can large language models (LLMs) implement computations of psychopathology? An effective approach to the question hinges on addressing two factors. First, for conceptual validity, we require a general and computational account of psychopathology that is applicable to computational entities without biological embodiment or subjective experience. Second,

Conics, (q+1)-Arcs, Pencil Concept of Time and Psychopathology [PDF]

open access: yesFrontier Perspectives 12/2 (2003) 9-11, 2003
It is demonstrated that in the (projective plane over) Galois fields GF(q) with q=2^n and n>2 (n being a positive integer) we can define, in addition to the temporal dimensions generated by pencils of conics, also time coordinates represented by aggregates of (q+1)-arcs that are not conics.
