fascinating study from a 9th grader (!!) that tested whether the major LLMs recognize Gen Alpha phrases.

reason for the study was rooted in content moderation curiosity: if LLMs can’t recognize GenA slang, how can they protect users from being bullied?

the answer? they can’t. they understand GenA slang as poorly as parents.

even Meta’s Llama 3 didn’t recognize the slang, despite the 9th grader referencing Insta comments as important.

candidly, if TikTok had an LLM i think it would do very well at this test. the only thing that evolves faster than Gen Alpha slang (the first post-iPhone generation btw!) is TikTok microtrends.

oh also, i want to be friends with this 9th grader!!! she seems so cool!!!
