Understanding Language Processing Mechanisms in Generative AI: An Experimental Study Using Japanese Colloquial Expressions
Overview This study investigates the language processing mechanisms of generative AI through an experiment using the Japanese colloquial expression “なんてったって (nante-ttatte)”. By analyzing how different AI models process and respond to this culturally embedded phrase, we gained insights into their internal processing mechanisms and potential implications for AI literacy education. Experimental Design and Results Experimental Setup We conducted an automated experiment using ChatGPT (GPT-4o) and Google Gemini (gemini-1.5-pro). Each model was tasked with answering “なんてったって・・?” in two tokens with 1,000 sampling iterations. ...
