Uncovering the values of the metaverse for leisure use by individuals
The metaverse is a computer-mediated environment where users take the form of digital avatars when participating in activities and interacting with one another. Given the popularity of the metaverse, especially among the younger population, we identified the values offered by the metaverse for leisure use by its users. Using the Value-Focused Thinking (VFT) approach, we identified these values in the form of fundamental and means objectives. The …
When AI sees hotter
Large language models (LLMs) have emerged as a novel form of media, capable of generating human-like text and facilitating interactive communications. However, these systems are subject to concerns regarding inherent biases, as their training on vast text corpora may encode and amplify societal biases. This study investigates overestimation bias in LLM-generated climate assessments, wherein the impacts of climate change are exaggerated relative t…
Linguistic dynamics of online scam conversations
The global rise of online scams poses escalating social risks, yet the underlying linguistic dynamics remain underexplored. Grounded in the Contextual Organization of Language in Deception (COLD) framework, this study applies a multi-stage analysis of 276,762 messages from 49 authentic scam cases, revealing how language is strategically adapted across five sequential phases—Trust Cultivation, Risk Fabrication, Persuasive Pitching, Compliance Indu…
Examining city image construction through the lens of linguistic soundscape
The study examined the role of linguistic soundscape in constructing city image. Previous studies paid inadequate attention to linguistic soundscape, an important branch of linguistic landscape. The authors applied the theory of City Identity System (CIS) and selected Shenzhen, the third wealthiest city in China, to discuss how linguistic soundscape in public space may shape people’s perceptions of a city. The public address announcements in the …
Generative AI and ChatGPT
Artificial intelligence (AI) has elicited much attention across disciplines and industries (Hyder et al., Citation2019). AI has been defined as “a system’s ability to correctly interpret external data, to learn from such data, and to use those learnings to achieve specific goals and tasks through flexible adaptation” (Kaplan & Haenlein, Citation2019, p. 15). AI has gone through several development stages and AI winters. In the first two decades (…
