Copilots for Linguists: AI, Constructions, and Frames

This Element explores how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can assist linguists in their research. A conversational AI based on a Large Language Model (LLM chatbot) is used to demonstrate its potential as a tool for Construction Grammarians and Frame Semanticists.

The authors investigate the usefulness of LLM chatbots for linguists, focusing on what they can do with language rather than whether they "understand" it. They provide scripted routines for prompting conversational LLMs, highlighting their value as an eliciting interlocutor.
