标题：AI生成的语言为何如此难以理解？.
查看 PDF HTML( 实验)
摘要：普遍感觉AI生成的文本最近变得难以理解。 在这项研究中，我们调查了一套已知与人类加工困难相关的心理语言特征(如对象相对条款，长的合成依赖性，低频正克). 我们发现，AI模型使用这些困难的特征比圆通翻译生成的解说要多。 与人类的写作相比，所有9个边疆和相近边疆的模型都使用更多有动词和更低频正克的活性主体，并且大多还使用更长的依赖性，更多的堆叠名词，在对话中更减少对象亲属；我们还表现出了模型家族之间的巨大差异。 我们提出并测试一个假设，说明为什么：虽然人类语言被优化用于成功的交流，但是AI生成的文本被越来越多地优化用于数学，代码和推理等其他目标，其中存在\textit{信息密度}而不是成功交流的压力。 我们用微调语言来证明这个假设 del在长刑下，导致与人相去甚远的语言行为。 我们的研究结果突出了人类语言处理需求与LLMs之间不一致的轴心，并指出了可能的补救办法。

Title:Why is AI-generated language so hard to understand?
View PDF HTML (experimental)
Abstract:There is a widespread sense that AI-generated text has recently become harder to understand. In this study, we investigate a set of psycholinguistic features that are known to correlate with human processing difficulty (e.g., object relative clauses, long syntactic dependencies, low-frequency n-grams). Using a novel corpus of AI-generated text across diverse domains, we find that AI models use these difficult features more often than paraphrases generated by round-trip translation. Compared with human writing, all nine frontier and near-frontier models use more inanimate subjects with animate verbs and more low-frequency n-grams, and most also use longer dependencies, more stacked nouns, and more reduced object relatives in conversation; we also demonstrate substantial variation across model families. We propose and test a hypothesis as to why: while human language is optimized for successful communication, AI-generated text is increasingly optimized for other goals like math, code, and reasoning, in which there is a pressure for \textit{information density} rather than successful communication. We provide a proof-of-concept for this hypothesis by fine-tuning a language model under a length penalty, which leads to a divergence from human-like linguistic behavior. Our findings highlight the axes of misalignment between linguistic processing demands in humans and LLMs, and point toward possible remedies.
