Abstract / Bemerkung
Given that large language models (LLMs) are systems that do not understand human language in a human-like way, LLM-generated grounding acts, such as explicit claims of understanding (e.g., “I understand”), can lead to overtrust in the capabilities of LLM chatbots, supporting their perception as human interlocutors (Shaikh et al., 2024). This paper argues for enriching these grounding acts with metalinguistic markers (e.g., scare quotes) that motivate users to perceive them as ‘mentioned’ and not as ‘used’ language (use–mention distinction; Sperber and Wilson, 1981). We illustrate how
different types of meta-language can be enriched with (non)verbal metalinguistic units to mark LLM-generated grounding acts as mentioned language.
