How humans process language (they think) is machine generated

2025-10-06

Abstract excerpt

<p>Large language models (LLMs) produce language that is often indistinguishable from human-generated language, but little is known about how people process it. Do they attribute human-like mental states and accountability to machine-generated language? Through the lens of pragmatic theory we explore how people process language when it is marked as generated by AI. In Experiment 1, we find that people believe the...
