Hi Patrick I am part of a lab that studies how LLMs respond to prompts regarding contested histories using a combination of digital humanities/nlp and traditional humanities methods. Happy to connect if you want to share best practices and strategies. Best, Ulysses On Sat, 24 Jan 2026 at 5:54 pm, Patrick McCurdy via Air-L < air-l@listserv.aoir.org> wrote:
Hi folks, I'm looking to connect with anyone currently studying/tracking/analyzing LLM output and, as a bonus, who is interested in claims and purported strategies around generative engine optimization (GEO aka AI SEO). My own research is trying to make sense of/tracking the rise of potential greenwashing via LLM output, but I'm keen to connect with researchers tackling any contested domain if you're doing empirical work in this area and/or thinking through methods for doing so.
On methods specifically, I am also keen to connect with anyone with NLP or computational text analysis experience, as I'm looking to strengthen that side of my own project.
Cheers -Patrick
